Bill > SB668

This bill renames the Children's Cabinet Fund to the Children's Cabinet Interagency Fund and mandates that for fiscal years 2028 through 2031, the Governor must include specific appropriations in the annual budget bill for this fund, which will then be used to provide grants to local management boards, which are entities responsible for coordinating services for children, youth, and families within their communities. These grants are intended to supplement existing funding for local management boards and will be awarded based on applications that demonstrate coordination with state and local plans and address identified needs in areas like youth development, prevention, and services for children at risk of or returning from out-of-home placement.
