Minnesota CFSS consultation services
A clearer way forward.
Connect And Care helps Minnesota participants and families understand and use CFSS with confidence—by making choices, planning, coordination, and community connections easier to act on.
Connect And Care LLC is not Minnesota DHS. This website is general education, not an eligibility, authorization, legal, or medical decision.
Understand. Choose. Participate.
Information with room to breathe
Our purpose
Confidence begins with understanding.
CFSS can open meaningful choices, but the language and roles can feel like a lot. We create practical, respectful explanations that help people prepare for conversations and stay connected to what matters in everyday life.
The person remains the decision-maker. Our job is to make information easier to find, understand, and use.

Care is more than a service.
It is a person’s routines, relationships, language, culture, goals, and sense of home. CFSS conversations are stronger when all of those parts can be heard.
We use culturally responsive, accessible language and leave room for each person to decide who belongs in the conversation.
Questions are useful
You do not need to know the right words before you begin.
Tradeoffs deserve honesty
Every model has responsibilities. Clear information supports an informed choice.
The person stays central
Planning starts with what matters to the participant—not a template.
