About the Book The Minnesota Response explains how Minnesota Extension responded to its mission and money crisis in 2004 with a sweeping restructuring. Breaking with 95 years of tradition, Minnesota Extension shifted from a county delivery model to a regional/county model. Regionalization, however, is the tip of the iceberg. Several other policies define Minnesota's new approach, including changes in funding sources, degree of specialization of the regional educators, more statewide program teams, development of business plans and public value statements, supervision of field educators by program specialists rather than geographic supervisors, new scholarship and promotion expectations, and new evaluation efforts. The Minnesota Response describes these policies and reports on their initial impacts on program quality, scholarship, access, and public support. As land-grant universities seek to rebuild programs based on 'best practices,' this book contributes valuable, experience-based insights into the choices available as Extension programs continue to evolve and respond. Michael V. Martin, Chancellor of Louisiana State University.

As with emergency preparedness in general, legal preparedness activities may not anticipate all of the varying legal issues that might arise in a health-related disaster because emergencies, by their very nature, create unique and sometimes unexpected challenges. One important consideration of public health preparedness is whether public health authorities are legally empowered to respond in the desired manners. This is important because of the potentially wide-ranging and unprecedented impacts of a pervasive or catastrophic event with public health ramifications and their potential to cross jurisdictional borders. This summary illuminates some of the Minnesota state and U.S. federal laws potentially applicable to the subjects of liability protection and resource allocation.

Starting on May 26, 2020, the state of Minnesota assisted in the response to the civil unrest occurring in Minneapolis and Saint Paul. Minnesota State Law Enforcement Agencies, including the Minnesota State Patrol, Minnesota Department of Natural Resources Law Enforcement Division, and other agencies, along with the Minnesota National Guard were called upon by the governor to provide services outside of their specific jurisdiction and training. The Department of Public Safety contracted with Wilder Research to objectively evaluate what the State did; identify actions and options that may have produced different, or better, outcomes; and provide recommendations to the Commissioner of the Department of Public Safety to assist the State and local governmental units in responding effectively to potential periods of future regional or statewide civil unrest.
