Mental health outreach and support and farm safety grant and outreach programs appropriation
This bill appropriates $100,000 for fiscal year 2026 and $100,000 for fiscal year 2027 from the general fund to support mental health outreach and farm safety programs for Minnesota's agricultural community. It directly funds services like a 24-hour mental health hotline, stigma reduction efforts, and education for farmers, ranchers, and others in agriculture. The funding is allocated under Minnesota Statutes section 17.1195, with unspent balances from 2026 carrying over to 2027. This is a funding measure with no policy changes beyond the allocation of specific resources for targeted outreach.
