The bill proposes an appropriation of $1 million from the workforce development fund to support Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Greater Twin Cities. Specifically, it allocates $500,000 for fiscal year 2026 and another $500,000 for fiscal year 2027. The funding is intended to provide disadvantaged youth aged 12 to 21 with essential job-seeking skills, access to job training and educational opportunities, and mentorship as they explore various career paths.

The grant will specifically benefit youth involved in Big Brothers Big Sisters chapters located in the Twin Cities, central Minnesota, and southern Minnesota. This initiative is designed as a one-time appropriation to enhance workforce development efforts for underserved populations in the region.
