The city of Topeka, Kansas, is offering economic incentives through the Choose Topeka program to attract new residents and workers, including Latino and immigrant families. Participants can receive up to $15,000 if they rent or buy homes in the city and are employed by local businesses partnering with the program. The incentives are not available for undocumented immigrants. The program, funded by the city and participating businesses, aims to support employers, promote economic development, and has brought almost 100 individuals and families to Topeka. It has recently been expanded to support veterans, recent graduates, and former residents returning to the city.
