Greetings!
As you may have heard, Governor Walz has signed a bill that will allow a stipend to be paid to Frontline Workers employed in the State of MN during the COVID-19 pandemic. Higher education has been determined to be a frontline sector for purposes of this bill. To determine if you qualify for this stipend, you will be required to submit an application to the State of MN at: https://frontlinepay.mn.gov/submit. The application is open today, June 8th, 2022 through July 22nd, 2022.
