BILL NUMBER:A8296A

TITLE OF BILL:  An act to amend the executive law, in relation to estab-
lishing   the  New  York  state  interagency  coordinating  council  for
service-disabled veterans, defining the powers and duties of the council
and requiring an annual report by  the  council  to  the  governor,  the
temporary president of the senate and the speaker of the assembly

PURPOSE  OR  GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:  This bill would establish a New York
State Interagency Coordinating Council for Service-Disabled Veterans  to
provide  accessible,  coordinated,  and specialized services to service-
disabled veterans from multiple state and local agencies.

SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS:  This bill amends the Executive  Law  by
adding  a new section 368 to create the New York State Interagency Coor-
dinating Council for Service-Disabled Veterans.

The Council will include ten agency heads or their  designees  from  the
following  agencies:  the  director  of  the  NYS  Division of Veterans'
Affairs, who will also serve as chair of this council, the NYS  Division
of  Military  and  Naval  Affairs,  the  Division of Housing & Community
Renewal, the Offices of Mental Health, Alcoholism  and  Substance  Abuse
Services,  Aging  and  the  Departments  of Health, Labor, Education and
Transportation.

In addition to the agency representatives, the Council will include nine

service-disabled veteran representatives appointed by the  Governor  and
the State Legislature.

Functions of the Council would include:

(a) promoting the implementation of a comprehensive statewide program of
coordinated  services  for service-disabled veterans that includes:  (1)
matters pertaining to educational training and retraining  services  and
facilities,  (2) health, medical and rehabilitation services and facili-
ties, (3) employment and re-employment services, including  small  busi-
ness opportunities, (4) housing options, (5) transportation options, (6)
long  term care, (7) personal care, (8) day program services, (9) family
outreach and  (10)  other  essential  services  that  maximize  existing
resources and administrative mechanisms;

(b)  disseminating  general  information  about  available  services  to
service-disabled veterans and how such services can be accessed;

(c) receiving complaints in matters affecting service-disabled  veterans
and  to  refer  such  complaints  to the appropriate regulatory agencies
where it deems necessary or appropriate; and

(d) conducting an ongoing evaluation of the  needs  of  service-disabled
veterans.

The  Council  shall  meet  quarterly  and shall seek to consult with the
federal department of veterans' affairs, specifically with  the  network
directors of VISN 2 & 3.

The Council shall report to the Governor and State Legislature beginning
on  or  before  September 1, 2011 with advisement on policy, legislative
recommendations and any other recommendations improving service delivery
and coordination, reducing duplication and fragmentation and  facilitat-
ing the most efficient use of existing resources.

JUSTIFICATION:  There are many veterans returning home from active mili-
tary  duty  with service-related disabilities. This bill would create an
interagency collaboration  to  identify  the  needs  and  services  that
service-disabled veterans require and a more efficient matching of these
needs to State resources. New York State must provide additional assist-
ance  and  support to service-disabled veterans to better inform them of
available services and how such services can be accessed.

LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: Passed Assembly

EFFECTIVE DATE:  This act shall take effect on the ninetieth  day  after

effective date.
