Public social services: support for older and aging immigrants.
- Establishes a state panel to develop policies supporting immigrants aged 55 and older regardless of status.
- Creates a 10-member advisory panel including healthcare, nonprofit, and social services experts.
- Requires recommendations for immigrant aging services to be submitted to Legislature by December 2028.
- Expires in January 2029 unless extended by future legislation.
Assembly Member Carrillo's legislation establishes a stakeholder panel to develop recommendations for supporting California's older immigrant population, regardless of immigration status. The panel, jointly overseen by the Department of Aging and Department of Social Services, would include representatives from nonprofit organizations, healthcare providers, aging advocates, and social service administrators.
The 10-member panel would examine issues including access to social services, housing, healthcare, and language services. Six members would be appointed by the Department of Aging - three from nonprofits representing aging or immigrant populations and three from clinical settings serving rural and under-resourced communities. The remaining appointments would come from legislative leadership and the Department of Social Services. Panel members would serve two-year terms without compensation.
The legislation requires the panel to issue findings and recommendations by July 2028 on policies and programs to assist immigrants aged 55 and older. These recommendations would inform both a legislative report due December 2028 and the state's Master Plan for Aging. The panel's work would begin within 90 days of receiving funding through legislative appropriation, with the program sunsetting January 1, 2029.
