AB 2880

Bill Subjects

Abstract

Existing law establishes the Transitional Housing Placement program, which provides transitional housing for nonminor dependents. Existing law provides for the establishment of rates to be paid to providers of transitional housing. This bill would require, subject to an appropriation in the annual budget act, and commencing January 1, 2021, that rate to be supplemented with a THP-NMD housing supplement. The bill would specify the method to be used by the State Department of Social Services to calculate that supplement and would require the department to notify counties by all-county letter of the amount of the supplement by November 1 of each year. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
