AN ACT APPROPRIATING FUNDS FOR THE DOMESTIC WORKERS EDUCATION AND TRAINING GRANTS PROGRAM.

SB 1428 allocates $500,000 for the 2025-2026 fiscal year and another $500,000 for 2026-2027 to fund the Domestic Workers Education and Training Grants Program under Connecticut law. The program, administered by the Labor Department, provides grants to support training and education for domestic workers, such as caregivers and housekeepers. This funding directly helps domestic workers access skills development opportunities through approved providers. The bill takes effect on July 1, 2025, and does not change existing laws but allocates specific funds for this targeted program.
