|
|
|
This bill
requires the Department of Health and Human Services, beginning July 1, 2026,
to include the cost of food provided or served at emergency shelters in the
reimbursement of general assistance costs to municipalities. This is expected
to increase the general assistance funding required by the Department of
Health and Human Services. A more precise estimate of the fiscal impact is
not possible because general assistance recipient data is kept at the
municipal level and varies over time. |
