Summary

Existing law provides for the county-administered In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) program, under which qualified aged, blind, and disabled persons are provided with services in order to permit them to remain in their own homes and avoid institutionalization. Existing law authorizes services to be provided under the IHSS program either through the employment of individual providers, a contract between the county and an entity for the provision of services, the creation by the county of a public authority, or a contract between the county and a nonprofit consortium. Existing law prohibits an applicant from providing supportive services for 10 years following a conviction for, or incarceration following a conviction for, specified felony offenses. Existing law provides an exception to this criminal exclusion under certain circumstances. Existing law requires the State Department of Social Services, upon receipt of an exception request, to request a copy of the applicant's criminal offender record information search response from the applicable county welfare department. This bill would instead require the department to request a copy of the applicant's criminal offender record information search response from the applicable county welfare department or public authority. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
