This bill proposes a contingent appropriation of $180,000 to the Department of Health and Human Services specifically for the funding of the Retired Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2027. The appropriation is contingent upon certification by the state comptroller that both unrestricted general fund revenues and the ending general fund balance for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026, exceed budget forecasts. The governor is authorized to draw the necessary funds from the treasury, provided they are not otherwise appropriated.

In addition to the RSVP funding, the bill outlines several other appropriations to the Department of Health and Human Services for the FY26/27 biennium, including $552,508 for the Alzheimer's disease and related disorders respite program, $100,000 for the foster grandparent program, and $30,000 for the senior companion program, all funded through the state general fund. The bill aims to enhance support for various senior volunteer and caregiver respite programs, reflecting a commitment to improving services for the elderly population.
