S 73 United States Senate · 118th Congress

Helping HANDS for Families Act

This bill amends the Social Security Act to allow family support services to include digital portals for accessing community resources. It directly affects families and children receiving these services, as well as state agencies administering them. The key provision adds a new option (subparagraph G) permitting electronic or digital tools to help families connect with care and support. This change modernizes how services are delivered, making it easier to access community-based assistance. The bill focuses on updating existing service delivery methods without creating new funding or mandates.
