SF 4456 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Culturally responsive adult mental health grants and children's mental health grants establishment and appropriation

This bill establishes new grant programs in Minnesota to fund culturally responsive adult mental health services and expands existing funding for children's mental health initiatives. It authorizes the commissioner of human services to distribute money to counties, Indian tribes, children's collaboratives, and mental health providers for services including crisis response, housing support, peer assistance, and culturally specific care. The legislation also creates priority funding for mobile crisis grants in areas most affected by Operation Metro Surge, requiring grantees to report on fund usage and obtain third-party reimbursement when available.
