SECTION 1.
Chapter 8 (commencing with Section 8265) is added to Division 8 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, to read:CHAPTER 8. Domestic Violence Survivor Homelessness Prevention and Support Services
8265.
The Legislature finds and declares the following:8266.
(a) (1) To the extent permissible under existing law, a city, county, or continuum of care shall use at least 12 percent of moneys allocated for homelessness prevention or support by the state to that city, county, or continuum of care for services for domestic violence survivors experiencing, or at risk of, homelessness.SEC. 2.
The Legislature finds and declares that Section 1 of this act adding Chapter 8 (commencing with Section 8265) to Division 8 of the Welfare and Institutions Code addresses a matter of statewide concern rather than a municipal affair as that term is used in Section 5 of Article XI of the California Constitution. Therefore, Section 1 of this act applies to all cities, including charter cities.SEC. 3.
If the Commission on State Mandates determines that this act contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement to local agencies and school districts for those costs shall be made pursuant to Part 7 (commencing with Section 17500) of Division 4 of Title 2 of the Government Code.It is the intent of the Legislature to enact legislation that would make a continuous appropriation of ten million dollars ($10,000,000) in the Budget Act of 2020 dedicated to responding to the housing needs of domestic violence survivors, and it is the intent of the Legislature to enact legislation that would make statutory changes to implement that appropriation.
