HR 10522Housing and Community Development
Vital Documents Access for Unaccompanied Homeless Youth Act of 2024
This bill creates a temporary 3-year task force bringing together federal agencies, state officials, and homeless youth advocates to identify barriers preventing homeless youth from obtaining vital documents like birth certificates and Social Security cards, and develop coordinated solutions. The task force must produce detailed reports with specific recommendations for making it easier for this vulnerable population to access the identification documents they need for housing, employment, and services.
