AI Summary

This bill directs the Department of Human Services (DHS) to conduct a comprehensive study on potential funding methods for senior centers in Oregon. Specifically, the bill requires DHS to investigate and analyze different approaches to financially supporting senior centers across the state. The department must prepare a formal report detailing its findings and may include legislative recommendations. This report must be submitted to the legislative interim committees responsible for human services by September 15, 2026. The study and reporting requirement will automatically expire on January 2, 2027, which means the department has a limited timeframe to complete its research and submit its recommendations. The goal appears to be to explore sustainable funding strategies that could help maintain and potentially expand senior center operations in Oregon, which play a crucial role in providing social, recreational, and support services for older residents.
