Minnesota SF1492 establishes a Civil Commitment Coordinating Division, sets up grant programs, and requires diversion studies.

Minnesota SF1492 creates a Civil Commitment Coordinating Division within the Office of the Attorney General. This division will manage engagement services, outpatient civil commitment, and provisional discharge grants. It will also oversee diversion studies to analyze local behavioral health systems' capacity to divert individuals with mental illness, developmental disabilities, or substance use disorders from the criminal justice system into treatment. The bill mandates that counties conduct these studies and submit data to the coordinator.
