Arkansas transfer board gets staff and funding

The law provides about $2.47 million for Arkansas’s Post-Prison Transfer Board from July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027. It allows up to 21 regular employees, including one database analyst. Funding includes about $1.67 million for salaries and $558,960 for related employee costs. It also provides $236,300 for operating expenses and $8,411 for conferences and travel. Spending cannot exceed the approved amounts or legally available funds, and must follow state financial rules and stated budget purposes. This funding supports board operations; it does not create a direct household payment or benefit.
