AI Summary
This bill establishes the Oklahoma Kids After-School Grant Program (OKAGP), which will be managed by the Department of Human Services. The program aims to provide grants to community-based organizations that operate after-school programs for students from kindergarten through twelfth grade. Eligible organizations must have at least five locations in Oklahoma where they either operate directly or through a partnership, and they may be exempt from certain licensing requirements under the Oklahoma Child Care Facilities Licensing Act. To support these grants, a dedicated "Oklahoma Kids After-School Grant Program Revolving Fund" will be created within the State Treasury, which will receive appropriations and donations and can be used by the Department of Human Services for awarding grants without being subject to annual budget limitations. The bill also specifies an effective date of November 1, 2026.
