To extend the Irish Peace Process Cultural and Training Program.

H.R. 4558 extended a specialized exchange program that allowed up to 4,000 young adults from Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland to live and work in the United States each year. The program targeted individuals from areas affected by high unemployment and historical sectarian conflict, providing them with professional job training and experience in conflict resolution. By extending this initiative through 2006, the law aimed to equip participants with the skills necessary to return home and contribute to the economic stability and ongoing peace process in their local communities.
