More rural youth programs for families

If enacted, this would authorize $5 million each year for 2026 through 2030 for grants. The Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, 4-H, and FFA would use the grants for pilot projects to expand programs in rural areas and small towns. Rural families could see more local activities and leadership programs for kids. Congress would still need to appropriate the money each year.
