HR 6403 United States House · 119th Congress

Homeless Children and Youth Act of 2025

HR 6403 expands eligibility for homeless children and youth services to include those verified as homeless through other federal programs (like Head Start, domestic violence assistance, or youth services), with verification timelines extended from 14 to 30 days. The bill requires annual public reporting of detailed homeless data - including age, disability status, and length of homelessness - to HUD, and prohibits service providers from prioritizing specific subpopulations without local data justification. It directly affects homeless youth under 24, unaccompanied youth, and families with children, ensuring consistent access to education, housing, and support services across federal programs.
