Appropriates unspecified amounts from the general fund to the commissioner of human services for fiscal years 2020 and 2021 to provide grants to day training and habilitation providers facing revenue reductions from disability waiver rate system changes under Minnesota Statutes section 256B.4914.

Requires eligible providers to serve at least 100 waiver service participants and be projected to lose at least 15 percent ($300,000 minimum) in annual revenue compared to revenue received under the previous banded rates system.

Grant recipients must develop and implement a sustainability plan in partnership with the commissioner that includes cost reviews, revenue assessments, and strategies to close the funding gap.

Commissioner of human services shall provide technical assistance and financial management advice to grant recipients, and recipients must demonstrate good faith efforts to close the revenue gap to remain eligible for annual grant renewals.

Appropriation is temporary and not ongoing; base funding ends in fiscal year 2023, with no funding allocated for fiscal year 2024, and the entire section expires June 30, 2023.
