Call to Action (HF4288)
March 25, 2026
We need your help RIGHT NOW.
HF4288 has been heard in the House and is now being considered for inclusion in the Human Services omnibus bill. This is the critical moment where decisions are made. If HF4288 is not included, Family Residential Services (FRS) providers across Minnesota will continue to close—and individuals will lose their homes.
Since September 2025:
55 homes (141 beds) have already closed.
More closures are happening as providers cannot sustain services under the flat-rate system.
This will force vulnerable individuals into more restrictive settings, increasing trauma and long-term costs.

Subject: Please Include HF4288 in the Human Services Omnibus Bill
Dear [Representative/Senator Name],
I am asking you to support the inclusion of HF4288 in the Human Services omnibus bill.
Family Residential Services are not just programs—they are homes. Without HF4288, providers will continue to close, and vulnerable individuals will be displaced into more restrictive settings.
Please protect these homes and ensure services remain person-centered and federally compliant.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
[City]
