Spending on Raise the Age Programs in New York
New York State has appropriated $1.71 billion through State Fiscal year (SFY) 2025 to help counties implement the provisions of the “Raise the Age” (RTA) law enacted in 2017, with $658.8 million disbursed through SFY 2025. As counties continue implementing RTA through programming and staffing, State spending may continue to increase.
