HF 4453 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Formula for allocation of state money for adult protection services modified.

This bill modifies how Minnesota distributes state funding for adult protection services to counties and participating Tribal Nations. The key change adjusts the allocation formula so that 40% of funds are distributed based on the number of suspected maltreatment reports and 60% based on the number of investigations that were screened in, replacing the previous percentages. Additionally, the bill establishes a minimum funding floor for counties to ensure they receive a baseline amount regardless of their reported case numbers. Tribal Nations can receive a guaranteed $100,000 each if they apply and have a resolution for a vulnerable adult protection program. The new funding distribution rules will take effect for allocations made on or after July 1, 2026.
