Bill > SF831

This bill appropriates an unspecified amount of money from the state's general fund to the Minnesota Department of Health in fiscal year 2026, specifically to fund a "Treat Yourself First" grant program administered through the Minnesota Medical Association. The grant's purpose is to create an awareness and education campaign addressing mental health and well-being among healthcare workers, with three primary objectives: reducing the stigma surrounding mental health services, encouraging healthcare professionals experiencing workplace-related fatigue to seek necessary care, and normalizing the help-seeking process. The campaign will target a broad range of healthcare professionals, including physicians, nurses, dentists, pharmacists, and other healthcare team members, and will provide resources to help them address burnout and improve their overall well-being. The appropriation is a one-time funding allocation that will remain available until July 1, 2030.
