Would fund veteran homelessness services for one year

Hennepin County file 26-0339, before the Hennepin County Board. Passed as of 2026-09-29.

Latest action: Approved

What it does

Homeless veterans get more case workers and support. The county will add one new staff member and keep three current workers to help homeless veterans find housing and services through June 2027.

The bigger picture

County and state team up on veteran housing. This agreement formalizes how Hennepin County and Minnesota work together to spot and help homeless veterans, which can improve data sharing and prevent service gaps.

What to watch

Funding expires in one year; ongoing cost unclear. The $500,000 and four staff positions end June 30, 2027 unless the state renews the grant, which means services could shrink if new money doesn't arrive.
