The Access MFTs initiative for 2026 continues to expand! We are excited to share that Minnesota will be joining Phase 3 of the Access MFTs initiative.
Current Minnesota rules have substantial barriers to licensure by endorsement as the current law includes both substantially equivalent language and a requirement of 5 years of experience to achieve licensure through this pathway. Minnesota statute also includes substantially equivalent language. AAMFT will be working in partnership with the Minnesota Association for Marriage and Family Therapy to remove barriers and streamline the endorsement process in Minnesota.
If you have any questions, concerns, or stories that you would like to share with the Access MFTs team regarding portability in Minnesota, please email us at portability@aamft.org.
