Relating to: grants to school counselors, granting rule-making authority, and making an appropriation. (FE)

SB 833 creates a $2 million appropriation for school counseling grants starting in the 2026-27 school year. It directly affects licensed school counselors (those holding a department-issued license under Wis. Admin. Code PI 34.059) by providing funds for their continuing education in mental and behavioral health. The bill requires the Department of Public Instruction to develop a program and promulgate rules to administer these grants. The funding is specifically allocated for counselor training costs, with no additional requirements or eligibility criteria detailed in the bill text.
