Minnesota Age in Place Network appropriation

This bill appropriates $3 million from the general fund for fiscal year 2026 to establish the Minnesota Age in Place Network through a grant to Age Well at Home. It directly affects low- to moderate-income homeowners aged 60+ who own their homes, by funding home modifications and safety renovations (like grab bars or ramps) at their residences. Each project is capped at $20,000, and up to 10% of the grant can cover administrative costs for the network’s setup and maintenance. The funding is specific to home safety improvements, not broader services or income support.
