Statewide Efforts
Moving Home Minnesota and Community Living Infrastructure programs are partnering for the FY2022-23 grant cycle
DHS’s Moving Home Minnesota and Community Living Infrastructure (CLI) programs are partnering for the FY2022-23 grant cycle to support counties and tribes in building the system infrastructure necessary to support housing in their communities. The funding, which totals over $7 million over the biennium, will be transformative for the 23 grantees, including six Tribes, across the state.
The Community Living Infrastructure Program, which began in 2018, is currently the state’s only funding in this type of housing infrastructure. The grant supports the housing-related needs of people with disabilities, or other individuals who face significant barriers in transitioning into community living, including individuals who have experienced homelessness. Grant funding can be used in one or more of these areas:
- Outreach and education about housing for individuals who are homeless or in institutions or other facility stays.
- Housing resource specialists to assist and educate individuals, family members, providers, advocates, and human service professionals about housing resources and opportunities in their region; and
- Administration and monitoring of the Housing Support program by counties or tribes.
For more information about the Community Living Infrastructure Program or Moving Home Minnesota, please contact CLI staff at dhs.dhs.grh@state.mn.us or MHM staff at Movinghomemn.mfp@state.mn.us.
