- ‘Soul-crushing’: Minnesota disability services provider group, clients take DHS to court
A lawsuit alleges Minnesota's Department of Human Services (DHS) is dismantling the Family Residential Services (FRS) program, which provides in-home disability care for over 3,000 people. Providers and clients claim a new fixed reimbursement rate is insufficient, leading to closures and reduced care quality. The Minnesota Association of Residential Service Homes (MARSH) and clients argue DHS systematically weakened the program.
