Next Steps

The next step is for the House Committee on Education and Workforce to review H.R. 3856. Potential actions include holding hearings, conducting a markup session to amend the bill, and potentially voting to approve or reject the bill for further consideration.

Social Impact

The bill aims to improve the lives of runaway and homeless youth by providing shelter, counseling, and other services. Positive impacts may include improved health, education, and employment outcomes. This, in turn, could lead to stronger communities and reduced crime.

Business Impact

The bill may have minimal direct impact on businesses, though increased social services and improved youth outcomes might indirectly create a more productive workforce.

Financial Impact

The bill authorizes significant funding for programs serving runaway and homeless youth. The financial impact will depend on the level of funding appropriated and how effectively these funds are used to reduce youth homelessness and related costs.
