Bill Summary

This bill provides one-time funds in fiscal year 2025-26 and fiscal year 2026-27 only for the Housing Problem Solving Program.

AI Summary

This bill provides one-time funding of $750,000 from the General Fund to the Maine State Housing Authority in both fiscal years 2025-26 and 2026-27 specifically for the Housing Problem Solving Program. The Housing Problem Solving Program is likely a targeted initiative designed to help address homelessness by providing short-term financial assistance or interventions that can prevent individuals and families from becoming homeless or quickly rehouse those who are experiencing homelessness. The funding is time-limited, meaning it will only be available for those two fiscal years, which suggests it is meant to be a temporary, focused effort to support diversion strategies for addressing housing instability in Maine.
