Bill > HF2799

This bill provides $3,000,000 in state funding from the general fund to the Minnesota Department of Human Services in fiscal year 2026, to be granted to an organization called Age Well at Home for establishing the Minnesota Age in Place Network. The network's primary purpose is to help older low- to moderate-income homeowners by providing home modifications and safety renovations that improve their ability to continue living independently in their own homes. Individual home modification projects are limited to $20,000 per residence, and the organization is permitted to use up to 10% of the grant money (approximately $300,000) for administrative expenses related to creating, expanding, and maintaining the network. By supporting home modifications for seniors, the bill aims to help older Minnesotans age safely and comfortably in their current homes, potentially reducing the need for more costly institutional care and supporting community-based aging strategies.
