The bill establishes a Dementia Services Program under the Minnesota Department of Health, aimed at enhancing coordination and support for state-funded policies and programs related to Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. The program will facilitate outreach and education efforts among various stakeholders, including state agencies, local public health departments, Tribal Nations, and community groups. Additionally, it will oversee the coordination and updates of the Alzheimer's Disease State Plan, collect and analyze relevant data, and integrate early detection and risk reduction strategies into existing public health initiatives.

Furthermore, the bill includes an appropriation of funds from the general fund to support the Dementia Services Program, with a specified amount allocated for fiscal year 2025 and a base amount set for subsequent years. This financial support is intended to ensure the effective implementation of the program's objectives and enhance the state's response to the challenges posed by dementia.
