If you or a family member has experienced domestic abuse, sexual assault, or stalking, you shouldn't have to choose between your safety and your job.

Minnesota Paid Leave includes Safety Leave: paid, job-protected time off for Minnesota workers who need to respond to a safety crisis. That can include finding safe housing, getting medical or mental health care, working with an advocate or attorney, going to court, or making a safety plan.

Your privacy is protected throughout the process. Your employer will only know that you took Family Leave, not the reason why.

You deserve to feel safe. And you deserve support getting there.

If you need help connecting with a Safety Leave certifier or advocate, call the Minnesota Day One® crisis line: 1-866-223-1111.

We have made the difficult decision to cancel community meals this week as we wait for the air conditioning in the building to be repaired. Right now, excessive heat in the building is making it potentially dangerous for people to be inside, and we believe it is the safest decision to suspend meal service until the air conditioning is repaired.

Thank you for your cooperation. We will be sure to provide updates as we receive them.
