A SUMMARY OF HOUSE BILL 4755 AS INTRODUCED 6-3-99
The Michigan Civilian Conservation Corps Act establishes certain eligibility requirements upon corpsmembers. Applicants must be residents of the state, be unemployed, and be, except for supervisors, between 18 and 25 years of age on the date of application. House Bill 4755 would amend the act to specify that an applicant could be either 18 to 25 years of age or 55 years of age or older on the date of application.
The bill would also amend the act to update references to the former Department of Social Services (DSS) and to its programs. (Currently, the Michigan Economic Development Corporation [MEDC] has undertaken certain duties that were once the responsibility of the DSS).
