HB 2724 requires emergency homeless shelters receiving state or federal financial assistance to adopt equitable operations policies ensuring fair access to shelter and support services. The policies must prohibit discrimination based on race, ethnicity, gender identity, age, disability, or other protected statuses. Shelters must provide equal access to basic amenities, prioritize services for vulnerable individuals, adopt trauma-informed care practices, and offer staff training on equity and inclusion. The Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs will oversee compliance and may withhold funding from shelters that fail to implement the required policies.
