Explanation
(This amendment provides $50,000 in the first year from the general fund to the Alliance for Families & Children of Central Virginia for the Ways To Work Program, a small loan program designed to lift citizens out of poverty and off the welfare rolls in Central Virginia. This intensively evaluated national program has been shown to provide the type of support to families with children needed to elevate them to self-sufficiency by increasing attendance at work, increasing incomes of loan recipients and providing opportunities to get better jobs.)
