HI HB1650

Establishes "Project Reset" program administered by the governor's coordinator on homelessness within the department of human services to assist offenders transitioning back into the community.

Program provides comprehensive post-release housing assistance including transitional housing and permanent housing to support offenders' reentry, rehabilitation, and employment prospects.

Addresses the gap where offenders exiting correctional facilities are ineligible for some homeless services because they do not meet "chronically homeless" requirements under section 346-378, Hawaii Revised Statutes.

Appropriates funds from general revenues for fiscal year 2022-2023 for development and implementation of the Project Reset program (specific amount not filled in on document).

Takes effect July 1, 3000 (note: effective date appears to contain a typographical error).
