The Department of Health and Human Services has finalized a rule that removes several sections from the regulations governing the Runaway and Homeless Youth program. The agency determined that these specific regulatory provisions are either duplicative of existing laws or better suited for other documents like grant announcements.
Why it matters: This action reduces administrative clutter without changing how the program operates or what providers must do. It shifts some guidance from permanent rules to temporary funding documents, which can be updated more easily than federal regulations.
Who it affects
- Organizations that receive grants under the Runaway and Homeless Youth Act
This final rule was issued by the Health and Human Services Department, Children and Families Administration; readers should verify details in the original Federal Register document before relying on it.
