    The Employment and Training Administration of the Department of Labor has announced the final funding amounts for the National Farmworker Jobs Program (NFJP) Career Services and Training grants for Program Year 2024. This funding, totaling $90,134,000, is part of an ongoing effort outlined in previous Federal Register notices. The allotments are calculated using a method that adjusts based on the previous year's allocations and availability of funds. Some funds were redistributed to other states since not all states submitted competitive applications for the 2024 grants. Additionally, $6,591,000 is allocated for migrant and seasonal farmworker housing, promoting permanent housing development.
