The bill establishes a targeted grant program aimed at addressing outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases, particularly in communities with low vaccination rates. The Minnesota Commissioner of Health is tasked with administering this two-year program, which will fund vaccination-related activities in areas at risk of such outbreaks. Eligible recipients for these grants include community health boards and nonprofit organizations that serve populations with low vaccination rates. Applicants must submit a detailed proposal outlining their intended activities, target populations, funding requests, and budget.

Additionally, the bill outlines the allowable uses of grant funds, which include vaccine information and education initiatives, efforts to combat vaccine misinformation, and assistance for individuals seeking vaccinations. The Commissioner is also required to develop culturally appropriate educational materials based on CDC resources, addressing key topics such as vaccine benefits, safety, recommended schedules, and access to free or reduced-cost vaccines. The bill appropriates funds from the general fund for this program, specifying amounts for fiscal years 2026 and 2027.
