Bill > SF2211

This bill authorizes a grant of $1,000,000 in both fiscal years 2026 and 2027 to Junior Achievement North, a nonprofit organization focused on financial literacy and career readiness for students. The grant is intended to expand access to the organization's educational programming, with a specific emphasis on reaching underserved students across Minnesota, particularly in greater Minnesota. The funding must be used to increase student participation in financial literacy, career readiness, and entrepreneurship programs. Junior Achievement North is required to follow evidence-based education grant procedures and must submit an annual report to legislative education committee chairs by February 1st detailing its operations, including a recent audit, program descriptions, student participation and demographic information, and partnerships with other financial literacy organizations. The goal of the bill is to support financial education and career preparedness for elementary and secondary students by providing resources to expand Junior Achievement North's existing programming.
