BILL NUMBER : S1083 TITLE OF BILL : An act to amend the social services law, in relation to temporary preinvestigation grants PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL : This bill would ensure that public assistance applicants receive adequate monetary emergency needs assistance or care.

Applicants would also be notified of their right to an expedited hearing when emergency needs assistance is
