An Act amending the act of April 9, 1929 (P.L.343, No.176), known as The Fiscal Code, in general budget implementation, further providing for Department of Human Services.

This bill amends Pennsylvania's Fiscal Code to create a permanent funding account for the Department of Human Services, specifically targeting support for individuals with intellectual disabilities. The new account will be funded by the net proceeds from the sale of former state centers for these individuals, as well as annual transfers from the General Fund based on budget cuts or estimated operational costs of closed facilities. These funds are designated to provide home and community-based supports, including housing assistance, for people on the emergency waiting list as of the start of each fiscal year. The legislation is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, ensuring that money in the account does not lapse and remains available for these specific services.
