This bill, authored by Representative Kotyza-Witthuhn, is focused on early childhood programs and involves financial appropriations for supporting the Parent-Child program. Specifically, the bill proposes to allocate a sum of $1,800,000 each year starting from the specified fiscal year to the Department of Children, Youth, and Families. This funding is intended for grants to be used by the Parent-Child program, which is described as an evidence-based and research-validated initiative. This program focuses on enhancing early childhood literacy and school readiness for children aged 16 months to four years and operates in multiple locations, including several Minnesota counties and cities. The base funding of $1,800,000 is set to continue annually from fiscal year 2028 onwards.
