Subject to the availability of funds in the Trust Fund, the Secretary shall make grants to eligible entities for the purpose of creating— employment opportunities for persons eligible for Program employment in projects designed to address community needs and reduce disparities in health, housing, education, job readiness, and public infrastructure that have impeded these communities from realizing their full economic potential; and free-standing job-training programs that provide job training, possibly including general education, to— Program employees pursuant to contractual arrangements between the training Program and their employer to provide the Program employees with specialized training needed for the performance of their jobs; or persons eligible for Program employment who seek such training rather than immediate employment in order to qualify for a Program or non-program job for which they otherwise would not qualify, provided that circumstances are such that the training Program is justified in providing reasonable assurances to the individuals enrolled in it that upon the successful completion of their training, they will be able to obtain a Program or non-program job that utilize their newly acquired skills.
