Homelessness: report.

Existing law provides for various programs to provide services for people who are homeless within the California Health and Human Services Agency. This bill would require a homeless services provider, as defined, to submit an annual report to the California Health and Human Services Agency that contains specified data regarding homeless children or youth and homeless persons. The bill would require the data reported to the California Health and Human Services Agency to be published on the California Health and Human Services Open Data Portal. By imposing new duties upon certain local entities to report this data, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to these statutory provisions.
