Please note that all wraparound support, continuing education, and retention incentives will no longer be available to graduate students after June 30, 2025, regardless of eligibility.
Examples:
- If you were employed on July 15, 2024, and eligible for the $500 one-year retention bonus, you would not be able to claim it because the grant funding ends on June 30, 2025.
- If you took continuing education courses and were eligible for a $500 incentive but did not submit a reimbursement form by June 30, 2025, you will not be reimbursed, as funding will have ended.
- If you completed a training course with a graduation date within 30 days of June 30, 2025, and did not submit your reimbursement form for your food stipend, mileage reimbursement, or school expenses by June 30, 2025, you will not be reimbursed.
Please note that these are just a few examples. If you have specific questions regarding reimbursements, please contact staff at thegatewayinproject@leadingageca.org.
