SB 444 Connecticut Senate · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT APPROPRIATING FUNDS FOR TEMPORARY HOUSING FOR HOMELESS PERSONS.

SB 444 appropriates $5 million from the General Fund for the Department of Housing to provide temporary housing for homeless persons during fiscal years ending June 2026 and June 2027. The bill authorizes the Department to enter lease agreements directly or partner with nonprofit organizations to secure housing. It directly affects homeless individuals in the state by creating a dedicated funding stream for temporary housing solutions. The key mechanism is the allocation of specific funds to enable lease agreements for immediate housing needs, without requiring additional legislative action for each agreement.
