To provide a pilot program for low interest loans to families with a child suffering from a terminal illness
AI Summary
This bill establishes a pilot program to provide low-interest loans of up to $10,000 to up to 30 individuals in Massachusetts to assist with expenses related to a child's terminal illness. The Executive Office of Health and Human Services will administer the program, defining the application process, eligibility requirements, and loan terms.
