Interagency Council on Homelessness.
- Requires state homelessness council to develop LGBTQ+-inclusive policies and best practices for homeless services.
- Mandates expanded data collection on LGBTQ+ individuals in state homelessness programs.
- Requires submission of recommendations to prevent discrimination in homeless services by January 2027.
Assembly Member Lee's proposal directs California's Interagency Council on Homelessness to develop targeted recommendations for serving LGBTQ+ individuals experiencing homelessness through coordination with community representatives, housing providers, nonprofit organizations, advocates, and researchers.
The bill outlines three primary areas for recommendation development: implementing culturally competent services through education and training resources, expanding data collection to document needs and experiences, and preventing discrimination and harassment within state-funded homelessness programs. These programs include any initiatives receiving full or partial state funding to address homelessness or provide related services.
The council must submit its findings and recommendations to the Assembly Committee on Housing and Community Development and Senate Committee on Housing by January 1, 2027. This report will detail specific policies and practices identified through the stakeholder coordination process to inform future program delivery and resource allocation.
