H.R. 7432 would require the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to issue guidance to states for coordinating with federal housing programs to improve services for youth aging out of foster care. The bill also would allow states to use mandatory funds for the Chafee program to provide various supportive services, including financial assistance for security deposits and moving costs. Finally, H.R. 7432 would require the Secretary of HHS to submit a report to the Congress on housing outcomes for foster youth.
