CA SB1088

Require cities, counties, and continuums of care to use at least 12% of state-allocated homelessness prevention or support funds for services to domestic violence survivors experiencing or at risk of homelessness.

Services must include both housing and housing-related stabilization services provided by programs already serving domestic violence survivors.

Require local agencies to establish and submit an actionable plan to the Department of Housing and Community Development by January 1, 2022, addressing needs of domestic violence survivors and their children experiencing homelessness, developed in collaboration with domestic violence victim service organizations.

Apply the bill's requirements to all cities, including charter cities, as a matter of statewide concern rather than a municipal affair.

Provide that if the Commission on State Mandates determines the bill creates state-mandated costs, reimbursement shall be made pursuant to existing statutory procedures.
