Minnesota is a good example of an organization that started small in its drive to integrate benefits programs. For instance, its recent statewide rollout of its online integrated benefit application website, MNbenefits.mn.gov, started as a pilot in 2020 with Code for America.

The final roll out, which took 12 months to implement, included the state’s 87 counties and three tribal nations.
