Jerry McGinty, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:
HB2490 by Howard (Relating to the authority of certain minors to consent to Texas Home Visiting Program services.), As Introduced
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would amend Government Code to allow a minor who is otherwise eligible for a home visiting program to consent to enrollment in and to receive services from a home visiting program.
Based on analysis of the Department of Family and Protective Services, it is assumed that the costs associated with implementing the provisions of the bill could be absorbed within existing resources.
Local Government Impact
No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
