Statute 44-1402: Grants for youth employment.
In accordance with appropriation acts, the secretary of commerce shall
provide grants to eligible administrative entities, as described in
K.S.A.
44-1403, and amendments thereto,
for the purpose of establishing and carrying out programs that provide
employment opportunities during the summer months and after school to
individuals through payments for labor
and related costs associated with the repair, maintenance and renovation of
essential
community facilities and for labor and related costs associated with
assisting
with community services and working with low-income senior citizens. In the
alternative, if the
eligible entity is a private business, such entity may provide employment
opportunities that would provide the youth with meaningful and valuable work
experiences other than such community services and assistance. Such private
business shall specifically stipulate in the grant
application what would be such work experience.
