AI Summary

This bill adds a juvenile justice workforce initiative to the existing talent advisory council framework managed by the Utah Board of Higher Education. Specifically, the bill expands the current talent initiative program, which helps higher education institutions develop workforce training programs in partnership with employers, to now include a focus on juvenile justice careers. The bill establishes a new advisory council for the juvenile justice workforce initiative that will be responsible for reviewing and recommending proposals for funding educational programs targeting workforce needs in the juvenile justice sector. The advisory council will consist of members from the private sector, government agencies, legislature, and industry experts who will evaluate program proposals based on criteria such as workforce need, industry involvement, program design, and cost-effectiveness. The bill also includes one-time and ongoing appropriations to support Talent Ready Utah, allocating $20,000 for fiscal year 2025 and $480,000 for fiscal year 2026 from the Income Tax Fund to help develop and implement these new educational pathways. The bill is set to take effect on May 7, 2025, and aims to create more structured career training opportunities in the juvenile justice field.
