Tribal partners, families and providers encouraged to attend

The Minnesota Department of Human Services Community Supports Administration is hosting a Tribal-focused webinar for feedback and engagement on an upcoming study to reduce reliance on children’s congregate care settings. Children’s congregate care may be defined as treatment or room and board settings that provide 24-hour care and include children’s residential treatment, shelter or group homes.
The Minnesota Legislature funded the study of current treatment options for children under Minnesota’s Medicaid program to identify obstacles in transitioning children into the community and community-based treatment.
Topics will include the study’s design, medical necessity and treatment standards for congregate care settings, gaps contributing to reliance on congregate care and the role of systemic racism and implicit bias impacting experiences with this care system.
