Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the social services law, in relation to home stability support programs
AI Summary
This bill amends the Social Services Law to create the Home Stability Support (HSS) program. The HSS program requires each local social services district to provide a shelter supplement of up to 85% of the fair market rent to eligible individuals and families who are homeless or facing imminent loss of housing. The bill also requires the state to fully reimburse the local districts for the costs of the shelter supplements and associated home stability support services. The program is intended to prevent eviction and address homelessness, and it defines eligibility criteria, service requirements, and reporting provisions.
