Massachusetts S136 aims to improve emergency housing assistance for children and families experiencing homelessness.
Massachusetts S136 amends the emergency housing assistance program to expand eligibility, streamline processes, and enhance support for families in need. The bill ensures that families with children and pregnant women without other children who are experiencing homelessness are eligible for emergency housing assistance. It allows families to self-certify their eligibility and waives the 12-month ban on re-entering the program.
