Plain-language change summary

The recent amendments to Bill SB 211 changed the responsible agency from the Department of Health to the Department of Human Services, indicating a shift in oversight for the Statewide 2-1-1 System Grant Program. This means that the Department of Human Services will now handle the implementation and operation of a communication system designed to provide residents with vital health and human service information. This change is significant because it aligns the program more closely with the primary agency focused on social services, potentially improving coordination and effectiveness in assisting the community.
