The bill appropriates a total of $500,000 from the general fund for the fiscal years 2024 and 2025 to support mental health services and outdoor activities for law enforcement officers, firefighters, and emergency medical services personnel. Specifically, it allocates $250,000 each year to Hometown Hero Outdoors, a nonprofit organization based in Stillwater, Minnesota. The funding aims to promote positive mental health, enhance interaction with mental health professionals, and improve the overall quality of life for individuals in these professions through various outdoor recreational activities and public education initiatives.

Additionally, the bill includes a provision stating that the section will take effect the day following its final enactment. This legislative effort underscores the importance of mental health support and recreational opportunities for those who serve in high-stress public safety roles, ensuring that they have access to necessary resources for their well-being.
