Health & Saf. Code, § 50688 · Chapter 7. Special Housing Programs for the Developmentally Disabled, Mentally Disordered, and Physically Disabled
Health & Saf. Code, § 50688
Text — As published in the Legislative Counsel's database, tables dated October 18, 2026 (pubinfo_2025.zip)
The Legislature finds and declares that proper housing serves as a stabilizing factor and is an important facet of any program designed to rehabilitate persons with mental and physical disabilities and persons who have mental health disorders and that the disruption of continued occupancy in a dwelling could cause a setback in treatment in particular cases. It is, therefore, the intent of the Legislature that persons who have received housing under a program established pursuant to Section 50680 shall be allowed to continue to receive rental housing assistance payments subsidies after termination of participation in a public program of rehabilitation, education, or social services if the persons meet the criteria established by federal regulations governing low-rent housing programs.
