Community Service/Community Services Development Grants (CS/SD)

Since the 2001 legislative session, the Minnesota Legislature has provided funding each year to the Department of Human Services (DHS) to help communities rebalance their long-term care service delivery system and increase their capacity to help people age 65 and older to stay in their own homes and communities.

These dollars are given out to organizations through the Community Service/Community Services Development grants, also known as CS/SD.

The CS/SD grants promote targeted development to meet the challenges of Aging 2030 and the forecasted pressures on Minnesota’s long-term care system.

CS/SD grants help:

• Persons age 65+ stay in their own homes and communities

• Improve chronic disease management in Minnesota’s communities

• Expand long-term care capacity by linking formal and informal long-term care services

• Support caregivers and promote independence through market-based solutions
