The governor announced how he will spend $19 million in CARES Act funding.

“Through this pandemic, South Carolina has remained a place of enormous opportunity, and we must continue to work to create these opportunities for our children and those seeking employment,” McMaster said Tuesday. “These targeted grants will train thousands of South Carolinians for high-demand jobs and provide the groundwork for our next generation to excel in the workplace.”

• Nearly $5M will go to South Carolina Department of Social Services
• $7 million will go to early childhood education
• SC Technical Colleges will get $8 million for job training.
