245.713 ALLOCATION FORMULA.
    Subdivision 1.[Repealed, 1987 c 403 art 2 s 164]
    Subd. 2. Total funds available; allocation. Funds granted to the state by the federal
government under United States Code, title 42, sections 300X to 300X-9 each federal fiscal year
for mental health services must be allocated as follows:
(a) Any amount set aside by the commissioner of human services for American Indian
organizations within the state, which funds shall not duplicate any direct federal funding of
American Indian organizations and which funds shall be at least 25 percent of the total federal
allocation to the state for mental health services; provided that sufficient applications for
funding are received by the commissioner which meet the specifications contained in requests
for proposals. Money from this source may be used for special committees to advise the
commissioner on mental health programs and services for American Indians and other minorities
or underserved groups. For purposes of this subdivision, "American Indian organization" means
an American Indian tribe or band or an organization providing mental health services that is
legally incorporated as a nonprofit organization registered with the secretary of state and governed
by a board of directors having at least a majority of American Indian directors.
(b) An amount not to exceed five percent of the federal block grant allocation for mental
health services to be retained by the commissioner for administration.
(c) Any amount permitted under federal law which the commissioner approves for
demonstration or research projects for severely disturbed children and adolescents, the
underserved, special populations or multiply disabled mentally ill persons. The groups to be
served, the extent and nature of services to be provided, the amount and duration of any grant
awards are to be based on criteria set forth in the Alcohol, Drug Abuse and Mental Health
Block Grant Law, United States Code, title 42, sections 300X to 300X-9, and on state policies
and procedures determined necessary by the commissioner. Grant recipients must comply with
applicable state and federal requirements and demonstrate fiscal and program management
capabilities that will result in provision of quality, cost-effective services.
(d) The amount required under federal law, for federally mandated expenditures.
(e) An amount not to exceed 15 percent of the federal block grant allocation for mental
health services to be retained by the commissioner for planning and evaluation.
