AN ACT to appropriate federal funds under the tanf block grant for boys and girls clubs.
The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:

There is appropriated from federal Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) Block Grant funds received for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011, the sum of two million five hundred thousand dollars ($2,500,000) to the Department of Health and Human Services. These funds shall be used to make grants for approved Boys and Girls Clubs programs. The Department shall award funds to the Boys and Girls Clubs across the State in order to implement programs that improve the motivation, performance, and self‑esteem of youth and to implement other initiatives that would be expected to reduce school dropout and teen pregnancy rates. The Department shall encourage and facilitate collaboration between the Boys and Girls Clubs and Support Our Students, Communities in Schools, and similar programs to submit joint applications for the funds, if appropriate.
SECTION 2. This act becomes effective July 1, 2010.
