Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the department of workforce development is required to provide $50,000 in each of fiscal years 2001-02 and 2002-03, in federal Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) moneys, as grants to the Wisconsin chapters of the Boys and Girls Clubs of America to improve the social, academic, and employment skills of youths who are eligible for TANF. This bill increases that amount to $500,000 in each of those fiscal years.
