Stevens Amendment

Federal Funding Disclosure (Stevens Amendment)

The Stevens Amendment is a federal law found in H.R. 6157 that requires funding information to be included on all projects or programs using federal funds. It is intended to provide transparency for taxpayers and ensure federally funded research and work are properly credited.

In addition to federal grants, the Workforce Development Board of Solano County (WDB) also receives funding through state and local programs. While the Stevens Amendment does not apply to non-federal initiatives, the WDB provides the same level of disclosure to ensure clarity and transparency regarding the use of all public funds.

This webpage lists how the WDB uses federal, state, and local grant funding to support its programs and services.
