AI Summary

This bill appropriates a total of $1 million ($500,000 in each of fiscal years 2026 and 2027) from the workforce development fund to the commissioner of employment and economic development. The funding is designated as a grant to Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Greater Twin Cities, specifically to support youth programming that helps disadvantaged young people between 12 and 21 years old. The program aims to provide job-seeking skills, connections to job training and education opportunities, and mentorship while helping youth explore potential career paths. The grant will specifically serve youth in Big Brothers Big Sisters chapters located in the Twin Cities, central Minnesota, and southern Minnesota. The appropriation is considered a one-time funding allocation, meaning it is not expected to be a recurring annual expense.
