Grant Detail
Due in part to our advocacy during the 2017 legislative session for additional funding for this program, the MDH is soliciting grant proposals from providers of adult day care, home care, and housing with services to provide educational scholarships for their employees.
Grants will run for 24 months. The estimated award range is $15,000 minimum to $100,000 maximum.
Award winners will be announced in May 2019.
