Health Care for Youth Experiencing Homelessness


|

A bill (A/9604/S.8937) is going through the NYS Legislature that would allow minors experiencing homelessness to give consent to their own health care. The bill has passed the Senate and the Assembly and has been waiting for Governor Hochul’s signature since June. Please consider sending a letter (see attached) to the Governor encouraging her to sign this legislation as soon as possible.
