Overview
This bill aims to reduce barriers for prospective tenants seeking supportive housing in California. It establishes the ‘California Direct Access to Supportive Housing’ (DASH) designation, which allows for expedited compliance documentation and acceptance of self-certification of homelessness. The bill also modifies referral processes to prioritize quick access to units, potentially bypassing the traditional coordinated entry system after a 180-day waiting period, and requires a review of documentation requirements by the California Housing and Homelessness Agency and the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee.
