This bill, Minnesota Senate File No. 1933, proposes an appropriation of $1.25 million in fiscal years 2026 and 2027 from the workforce development fund to the Minnesota Alliance of Boys and Girls Clubs. The funding will support a statewide youth job skills and career development project administered by the alliance.

The project aims to: - Provide early access to education and job-seeking skills. - Offer career guidance components, including health and life skills. - Facilitate work-based learning experiences, such as career pathways in STEM, career exploration and matching, and first job placements. - Establish local community partnerships and onsite job opportunities.

A 25% funding match from non-state resources is required, and the appropriations are designated as one-time funding.
