Hennepin County file 26-0337, before the Hennepin County Board. Passed as of 2026-09-29.
Latest action: Approved
People in mental health and addiction programs get continued care. Hennepin County adds $330,000 to an existing contract, bringing total funding to $1.32 million through September 2027, so current clients won't lose services.
County signals long-term commitment to treating mental illness and addiction together. Extending the contract two more years helps the Substance and Mental Health Services Administration keep staff, build trust with clients, and plan programs beyond the current year.
Funding increase only covers existing clients and current services. The $330,000 boost doesn't expand to new people or new services; people on waiting lists or needing different care types may not benefit.
