The grant program must connect children and youth with high-quality educational and extracurricular programming and families with key health and social services in order to improve prenatal and early childhood outcomes, student achievement, and workforce readiness. A local government, local education provider, state institution of higher education, Indian tribe or tribal organization, or community-based nonprofit or not-for-profit organization (eligible entity) is eligible for a grant award.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>The bill creates an advisory board to approve the state department's potential grant recipients and to collaborate with the state department to develop grant program guidelines and criteria for awarding grants.</p><p></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>To receive a grant, an eligible entity must submit an application that includes an economic mobility needs assessment and a comprehensive proposal to address the needs within its designated service area. The application must identify community partners as prospective subcontractors. Each grant recipient must annually report to the state department on a set of performance indicators assessing the economic mobility outcomes and impacts associated with the grant award. The state department must make a related report to the general assembly each year.</p><p></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>The state department may seek, accept, and expend gifts, grants, and donations for grant-program-related purposes.
