Public social services: support for aging immigrant and undocumented older adults.
- Establishes a state panel to develop recommendations for supporting undocumented older adults in California.
- Creates an 8-member advisory panel including healthcare experts and immigrant rights advocates.
- Requires final recommendations to be submitted to the Legislature by December 31, 2028.
- Mandates consideration of housing, healthcare access, and social services for immigrants over age 55.
Assembly Member Carrillo's proposal to examine support systems for aging immigrant and undocumented older adults would establish a new stakeholder panel within the California Department of Aging to develop policy recommendations. The panel would include representatives from nonprofit organizations serving aging and immigrant populations, healthcare providers working in rural and under-resourced communities, and immigrant rights advocates appointed by legislative leadership.
The Department of Aging would convene stakeholders and subject matter experts to analyze issues affecting this population, including access to social services, healthcare, housing, and language assistance. The panel may partner with academic institutions for additional research and testimony to inform their work. Within 90 days of receiving funding, the group would begin meeting to develop findings and recommendations for supporting immigrant and undocumented adults aged 55 and older.
By July 2028, the panel would submit recommendations to the Department for implementing new policies and programs. The Department would then report these findings to the Legislature by December 2028 and incorporate relevant proposals into California's Master Plan for Aging. The provisions would expire on January 1, 2029, unless extended by subsequent legislation. Implementation remains contingent on future budget appropriations, though the bill allows for third-party contributions to offset costs.
