The new bill proposes to allocate funds from the state general fund to the Department of Administration for the specific purpose of distributing to organizations that collaborate with school districts and charter schools. These organizations must provide instruction in kindergarten through eighth grade and administer in-school recess and after-school programs that focus on safety, engagement, and empowerment of students and adults involved in the programs.

The appropriations are as follows: $4,000,000 for the fiscal year 2024-2025, $3,000,000 for the fiscal year 2025-2026, and $3,000,000 for the fiscal year 2026-2027. Additionally, the bill stipulates that these appropriations are exempt from the provisions of section 35-190 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, which typically govern the lapsing of appropriations.
