Verbatim from the official edition

Text — As published in the Legislative Counsel's database, tables dated October 18, 2026 (pubinfo_2025.zip)

A community support program for persons who are homeless with a mental health disability should also assist its clients to establish self-help groups and peer counseling. An agency should offer each client a written individualized service plan that will specify the services to be provided as a result of discussions with the client and the rights of the client, as well as the expected results or outcomes of the services. A program should encourage each client to include family members, friends, the client’s primary therapist, and the client’s physician in the development of the client’s individualized service plan.
