Bill > SF1672

This bill appropriates $1,000,000 in fiscal year 2026 to the Minnesota commissioner of employment and economic development, specifically designated as a grant to Hnub Tshiab: Hmong Women Achieving Together, a community organization. The funding is intended to support the acquisition of property and the subsequent predesign, design, construction, renovation, furnishing, and equipping of a community center located in Ramsey County. The center's primary purpose is to provide educational and leadership development programs that aim to promote and strengthen cultural knowledge and identity among Hmong women and girls, ultimately seeking to create social change and improve their lives. The appropriation is a one-time grant that will remain available until the project is either completed or abandoned, in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, section 16A.642. This bill represents a significant investment in supporting the Hmong community, specifically focusing on empowering women and girls through cultural education and leadership development.
