Establishes a pilot program to provide housing subsidies for families in public housing whose eligibility is threatened by youth employment income.

The bill creates a four-year pilot program to offer housing subsidies for families in public housing facing imminent loss of housing or rent increases due to income earned by a family member under 21. The program, called the Youth Employment Empowerment Act (YEEA), aims to prevent housing instability for these families. The commissioner will allocate funding and determine subsidy amounts, which may cover up to five months of rent arrears or the difference between prior year's rent and any increase.
