AI Summary

  • Repeals Minnesota's housing stabilization services program (section 256B.051), which provided Medicaid-funded services to help individuals with disabilities obtain and maintain stable housing, including housing transition assistance, tenancy support, and up to $3,000 annually for security deposits and furnishings

  • Removes housing stabilization services from the list of covered health services under MinnesotaCare (section 256L.03) and eliminates references to the program throughout related statutes governing background checks and provider enrollment

  • Amends the housing access grants program to add a new definition of "individual with a disability" directly in statute, since the previous definition referenced the repealed housing stabilization services section

  • Removes the requirement for housing stabilization services providers to demonstrate compliance with federal and state laws for those specific services, while maintaining other provider qualifications for home and community-based waiver services

  • All sections take effect the day following final enactment
