Establishes the Joint Enlistment Enhancement Program (JEEP) to incentivize Illinois National Guard recruitment.
HB5380 amends the Military Code of Illinois to create the Joint Enlistment Enhancement Program (JEEP). The Department of Military Affairs can use funds from the Military Affairs Trust Fund to provide grants to current Illinois National Guard members who are not recruiters but are in good standing. These grants aim to boost recruitment through peer-to-peer referrals, fostering camaraderie, and promoting cooperation between the Illinois Army National Guard and the Illinois Air National Guard.
