Program participants may receive a stipend of $10.00 per hour for seat time spent in a supervised classroom setting, at the discretion of the Classroom Training Coordinator. Supplementary funding is available for those client’s requesting assistance with obtaining a GED (6 months or less). Service provided once per year unless funding is available for clients who successfully completed CRT courses, so that further CRT courses can be provided."
