Bill > SF1897

This bill appropriates a total of $5 million ($2.5 million in fiscal year 2026 and $2.5 million in fiscal year 2027) from the state's general fund to the commissioner of children, youth, and families specifically for child care improvement grants. The grants will be allocated according to Minnesota Statutes section 142D.20, subdivision 3, paragraph (a), clause (7), which likely relates to specific child care quality enhancement or support programs. Notably, the bill specifies that $0 will be used for administrative costs, meaning the full appropriated amount is intended to go directly to the grants themselves, as opposed to covering bureaucratic expenses associated with managing the program. This targeted funding appears aimed at supporting and potentially improving child care services in the state.
