HB 2685 requires the Housing and Health Services Coordination Council to evaluate the 2-1-1 services provided by the Texas Information and Referral Network to inform the expansion of service-enriched housing across Texas. The council must conduct biennial evaluations assessing service usage, demographic data, database integration with state and local agencies, and referral outcome statistics. The Texas Information and Referral Network must collaborate with the council to determine what de-identified data could be included in the evaluation. The council must develop a biennial plan to improve the delivery of community resource information based on the evaluation results. The Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs may use general revenue funds to contract for services related to the evaluation.
