Establishes due process procedures for individuals in out-of-state residential schools receiving offers for transitional care.

This bill amends the mental hygiene law to provide due process procedures for individuals in New York State Education Department approved out-of-state residential schools who have received offers for transitional care or certain care. It ensures these individuals can object to proposed adult services or placements and requests a hearing. If a hearing is not requested or results in a determination that the proposed placement is appropriate, care funding will be discontinued. The written determination is the final administrative remedy.
