This bill appropriates $1,000,000 from the general fund for fiscal year 2026 to the commissioner of children, youth, and families, specifically for a grant to the Greater Minneapolis Council of Churches. The funding is designated to support food shelves that are part of the Minnesota FoodShare program, with the distribution of funds to be based on the program's established distribution formula. This appropriation is a one-time allocation aimed at enhancing food support services in the region.

Additionally, the bill mandates that the Greater Minneapolis Council of Churches report to the commissioner by August 1, 2026, detailing the number of food shelves that received funding, the amounts distributed to each, and any funds allocated for administrative purposes. The Council is permitted to use up to five percent of the total appropriation for administrative costs associated with managing the grant.
