The bill proposes an appropriation of funds for the development of an African American-focused Homeplace model aimed at enhancing maternal and child health outcomes in Minnesota. Specifically, it allocates a specified amount from the general fund to the commissioner of health for a grant to the Birth Justice Collaborative. This grant will support planning and community engagement efforts to create a replicable model that provides culturally centered healing and care during pregnancy and the postpartum period.

Additionally, the bill mandates that the Birth Justice Collaborative report to the commissioner of health by December 15, 2025, or within 12 months of receiving the grant. This report is required to detail the needs and plans for the Homeplace model in Hennepin County, including potential partnerships, financing strategies, and a timeline for development.
