Bill > HB3840

This bill amends the Illinois Affordable Housing Act, specifically Section 14 concerning the Homeless Veterans Demonstration Project. The bill makes a minor technical change by removing and reinserting the word "the" in the text, which appears to be a grammatical correction. The existing law establishes a demonstration project designed to support low and very low-income homeless veterans and their families. The project provides short-term shelter and comprehensive assistance, including needs assessment, program eligibility evaluation, application support, and referrals to various agencies. Additionally, the project aims to establish connections with labor organizations, community colleges, vocational rehabilitation programs, and job training initiatives to help veterans. The original law also required the Program Administrator to submit an evaluation report to the Governor and General Assembly by January 1, 1991, though the current bill does not appear to modify this reporting requirement. The primary purpose of this bill seems to be a technical correction to the existing statutory language.
