The bill proposes an appropriation of $250,000 from the workforce development fund for the fiscal year 2027, specifically allocated to the commissioner of employment and economic development. This funding is intended for a grant to People Serving People, an organization based in Minneapolis, to enhance preemployment and job readiness services for parents and adults facing homelessness.

The grant will support a variety of services aimed at helping these individuals overcome barriers to employment and achieve financial stability. These services include assistance with resume and cover letter writing, job search and application support, mock interviews, provision of interview and work clothing, help with uniform and licensure fees, access to technology, financial fitness classes, and support for child care and transportation. This initiative is designed to facilitate pathways to long-term self-sufficiency for families in need.
