Summary
This bill amends the Social Security Act to improve coordination between federal child welfare and housing assistance programs for youth who have experienced foster care. It authorizes states to use existing Independent Living Program funds to provide housing supportive services—such as financial literacy counseling, rental assistance, and security deposit help—to eligible youth ages 18–25 receiving federal housing vouchers. The bill requires the Departments of Health and Human Services and Housing and Urban Development to issue joint guidance on aligning these programs and report to Congress on outcomes within three years.
