Adjust vocational rehabilitation appropriation to reflect increase in grant revenue Decision Package

The adjustment reflects the net increase to the federal formula grant award from the Rehabilitation Services Administration since 2020 and does not exceed the base award limit specified in the Appropriations Act. The adjustment also captures increases in average program income received from the Social Security Administration and in vocational rehabilitation grant revenue that is unrelated to the base award and does not require state matching funds.

Brain Injury Community Services (314 #2c) General Assembly Adjustment
  Provides $750,000 general fund the second year for community services for individuals with brain injuries. Community service providers continue to have waiting lists for services and struggle to meet current service needs given that members of the service population often require specialized support. Funds would increase statewide investment in the existing state-contracted safety net brain injury services system and provide opportunities to strengthen existing programs, such as hiring additional case managers and professional clinical staff, modernizing equipment and information technology systems, expanding statewide awareness/education efforts, or implementing other critical supports to address growing demands for brain injury services across the state.

Chapter 2, 2024 Special Session I provided $775,000 in each year of the 2024-26 biennium for this purpose. State-contracted brain injury service providers report high attrition and difficulty filling open positions because of non-competitive salaries and benefits, resulting in negative impacts on the delivery of programs and services and difficulties in meeting client needs.
