Governor Cooper signed House Bill 1105 into law after it was passed by North Carolina’s General Assembly. This is North Carolina’s third COVID relief package, and it allocates funds for the following:
- Small Business Grants
- Education
- PPE
- Child care services
- COVID testing
The legislation provides specific relief in the form of a one-time payment of $335 to families with a child under the age of 18 to help offset unexpected costs related to school closures. Additionally, it offers an additional $50 Unemployment Insurance boost for unemployed workers. The $1.1 billion relief package draws from funds provided by the CARES Act.
