Family support and consumer support programs modified, community first services and supports covered services modified, and commissioner directed to allow certain services under the disability waivers and consumer-directed community supports.

HF 3109 modifies Minnesota's family support and consumer support programs to expand covered services under disability waivers and consumer-directed community supports. It directs the commissioner to allow specific services - like adaptive or one-on-one swimming lessons for drowning prevention (based on CDC data) - that are "over and above normal costs" and directly tied to a person's disability. The bill requires services to help prevent out-of-home placement and ensures they are only used when no other public or private funds are available. It maintains the $250 monthly grant cap per eligible person, consistent with existing limits. This directly affects Minnesotans with disabilities and their families seeking community-based support.
