MPHA and the St. Paul Public Housing Agency (SPPHA) have sent a joint letter to state health and housing leaders, stating that public health vaccination priorities would be effectively addressed by prioritizing residents of public housing highrises.

MPHA and our partners at Volunteers of America MN/WI have similarly sent a joint letter urging consideration of VOA social workers and certain MPHA staff as “front-line” essential workers for purposes of vaccine distribution.

MPHA continues to work with Hennepin County and other partners to target testing to buildings based upon case data.
