Family Re-Housing Stabilization Program Protection Congressional Review Emergency Amendment Act of 2024

This bill amends existing laws to allow the District of Columbia's Family Re-Housing Stabilization Program to extend assistance beyond the standard 12-month limit for eligible participants. To qualify for an extension, individuals must request it in writing, demonstrate good faith progress toward housing stability, and not yet have access to permanent affordable housing. The program will grant these extensions in six-month increments with reviews every three months to ensure continued support, and denied applicants will receive written notice explaining the decision along with their right to appeal.
