Explanation
(This amendment provides $25,000 the second year from the general fund to the Jewish Federation of Greater Washington. The program was recently launched as a one-stop community based resource to help unemployed workers with three distinct sets of services: 1.) Boot Camp referral workshops; 2.) counseling and evaluation; 3.) referrals for financial assistance and other community services. A small state grant would allow JLink to secure space and additional staffing hours to expand these high demand offerings during the recession.)
