The Family Re-Housing Stabilization Program Protection Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2025 was introduced to address the urgent need for continued support for participants in the Family Re-Housing Stabilization Program. This resolution highlights the potential risk of families being exited from the program without securing permanent housing, thereby necessitating immediate legislative action. The Council of the District of Columbia previously enacted the Family Re-Housing Stabilization Program Protection Emergency Amendment Act of 2024, which provided essential due process protections for families exiting the program, and this resolution seeks to extend those protections.

The resolution emphasizes the importance of maintaining the current protections and allowing for extensions of housing assistance for families facing termination, contingent on available funding and specific circumstances. Given the urgency of the situation, the Council has determined that emergency legislation is required to ensure that families are not left without support. The resolution is set to take effect immediately following its adoption after a single reading, reflecting the Council's commitment to safeguarding vulnerable families in the District of Columbia.
