HF 1020 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Developmental delay age limit working group established, and report required.

HF 1020 establishes a working group within Minnesota's Department of Education to review the current age limit for children receiving special education services for developmental delay. The group, composed of specified education and disability advocacy representatives, will assess the impact of raising eligibility from age six to age seven and submit findings to the legislature by February 1, 2026. This bill directly affects children with developmental delays who may lose services at age six under current rules, though it does not change eligibility itself - only mandates a review of the policy. The working group will operate until its report is submitted, with no compensation for members.
