Minnesota Independence College and Community appropriation for workforce development services for adults with autism

This bill appropriates $1 million for fiscal year 2026 and $1 million for fiscal year 2027 from the general fund to Minnesota Independence College and Community (MICC). It funds MICC to provide employment preparation, job placement, job retention, and service coordination services specifically for adults with autism and learning differences. The funding directly supports adults with these conditions in accessing workforce development resources. The bill creates a concrete financial mechanism to expand employment services through an existing nonprofit provider.
