What is the Olmstead Implementation Office?

The Minnesota Olmstead Implementation Office (OIO) works at the intersection of Minnesota’s state agencies and disability community. The Olmstead Plan aims to ensure that disabled Minnesotans are living full, integrated lives in their chosen communities.

Minnesota’s Olmstead Plan was approved in 2015 and is updated annually. State agencies decided it was time for a comprehensive overview of the Plan. OIO is hosting engagement opportunities, including these community conversations. OIO will also engage consultants with disabilities to co-create the Olmstead Plan with state agencies.
