Wallin Education Partners grant appropriation

SF 3801 appropriates $750,000 from the workforce development fund for a one-time grant to Wallin Education Partners. The funds will support the organization’s career development program for under-resourced participants, including career exploration, skill-building, mentoring, and employment readiness. The grant also allows Wallin to expand its construction and healthcare pathways programs, which provide hands-on learning and work-based experience to prepare participants for careers in those fields. This bill directly affects Wallin Education Partners as the grant recipient and under-resourced individuals seeking career training opportunities.
