3. Include other Community Development Block Grant funds in the amount of $101,200 and $116,632 from the City’s American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 Federal stimulus funds to provide two-year funding to LifeMoves (Graduate House Case Management), the Day Worker Center (education, skills, and job placement program), YWCA, Community School of Music and Arts, and Junior Achievement of Northern California (financial literacy and workforce readiness program).
