SF 3027 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Family adult foster care homes licensing requirements modifications

SF 3027 modifies licensing rules for family adult foster care homes in Minnesota. It adds definitions for "primary residence" (clarifying when a home's address for licensing purposes changes) and "primary caregiver" (specifying who is responsible for care coordination, even with family or limited staff support). The bill also creates a voluntary mental health certification for homes serving people with mental illness, requiring staff to complete 7+ hours of annual training on topics like crisis response, treatment options, and suicide intervention, plus having mental health professional consultation available. This directly affects family adult foster care home license holders who serve individuals with mental illness and choose to pursue the certification.
