Bill > H3838

This bill creates and implements the Massachusetts Flexible Housing Subsidy Pool (MFHP) program to address the medically complex needs of disabled men, women, and children experiencing homelessness in Massachusetts. The program will be administered by the Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD) and will involve a third-party nonprofit organization serving as an intermediary. The bill outlines the eligibility criteria, eligible activities, and funding allocation for the program, with a focus on serving populations such as those experiencing chronic homelessness, long shelter stays, and medically complex issues. The bill also establishes a trust fund to support the program and requires the DHCD to work with various state agencies and entities to coordinate services and ensure effective implementation.
