Bill > HF2665

This bill establishes a diaper distribution grant program in Minnesota. The program will provide competitive grants to eligible applicants, such as organizations with a statewide network for diaper distribution, to purchase diapers and related supplies, cover warehousing and staffing costs, and address diaper need among underresourced families across the state. The bill also requires the commissioner of human services to report annually to the legislature on the program's progress, including the number of grants awarded and diapers disbursed. The bill appropriates $500,000 in each of fiscal years 2024 and 2025 from the general fund to the commissioner for the diaper distribution grant program.
