SACRAMENTO, Calif., Feb. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — New legislation, SB 1301 by Senator Ben Allen, was introduced today to help homeowners and renters avoid nonrenewal and keep their home insurance. The bill is cosponsored by Consumer Watchdog and the Eaton Fire Survivors Network to strengthen transparency and create a path to maintain coverage for fire survivors and consumers across the state. 

SB 1301 would require property insurance companies to give six months notice before nonrenewing a policy, clearly disclose the reasons for nonrenewal and any information used to make that decision, and give consumers time to make repairs that would qualify them to keep their coverage. The bill would also prevent insurance companies from nonrenewing a home, condo or renters policy simply because a consumer inquired about a claim, filed a claim that wasn’t paid, or had a paid claim for an issue that is resolved.

“Insurance companies have rules about what homes they cover but families losing coverage never get a chance to meet them. Too many Californians have lost their insurance coverage without explanation, because of bad information or simply because they filed a claim. SB 1301 gives consumers information they can act on to keep their policy, and a right to use their insurance without losing it,” said Carmen Balber, executive director of Consumer Watchdog.

California ranks 4th highest in the nation for non-renewals, according to a Congressional investigation in December of 2024, and the FAIR Plan, consumers’ last resort when they cannot get coverage in the private market, has seen enrollment double in just two years.

“Property insurance is a foundational pillar that safeguards the wellbeing of residents everywhere,” said Senator Allen. “Too many Californians are losing this critical support system without a proper explanation or opportunity to retain coverage, unnecessarily risking their livelihoods. SB 1301 will put an end to that.”

“This is about keeping families in our homes. Right now, people are being dropped without warning or explanation, left scrambling and scared. Californians deserve a fair chance to stay insured and protect the life we’ve built,” said Joy Chen, executive director of the Eaton Fire Survivors Network.

A constant complaint from consumers is that home insurance nonrenewal letters are vague, rarely include documentation, and don’t provide a path to maintain coverage, said Consumer Watchdog. This opaqueness makes compliance impossible for policyholders, and allows insurers to drop policies for safe homes without accountability. 

One San Francisco homeowner’s experience shows the need for the bill. The teacher and school bus driver was dropped by her insurance company for algae and mold on her roof according to Google Earth. She hired an inspector that certified no issues on the roof or chimney, yet was still dropped.

Polling by FM3 Research in October 2025 shows 81% of California voters strongly support requiring insurance companies to provide a policy owner with a documented reason for cancellation or non-renewal, and the right to appeal a cancellation or non-renewal

The legislation will:

• Give homeowners six months’ notice if their insurance will be nonrenewed.
• Require disclosure of specific reasons from insurer underwriting guidelines for the nonrenewal, and any information used to make that decision including details about wildfire risk.
• Require a clear explanation of any repairs that would qualify a homeowner for renewal.
• Give policyholders more time to make home repairs, provide new information, or appeal incorrect information to keep their insurance. 
• Prevent insurance companies for non-renewing or denying coverage because a policyholder inquires about a claim, makes a claim the insurer does not pay, or makes a claim for which the policyholder wasn’t at fault and the risk of loss has been removed.

Consumer Watchdog is supporting or co-sponsoring several other bills addressing home insurance claims, access and affordability this year.

SB 877 (Pérez), cosponsored by Consumer Watchdog and the Eaton Fire Survivors Network, helps consumers challenge claim underpayments by requiring insurers to disclose all original loss estimates and all revisions so homeowners can see how their payout was calculated, what changes were made, and why.

SB 878 (Pérez), cosponsored by Consumer Watchdog and the Eaton Fire Survivors Network, strengthens existing laws on claim delays by imposing a 20% interest penalty when insurers don’t make payments on time and eliminating insurers’ incentive to stay silent on portions of a claim.

SB 1076 (Pérez), cosponsored by Consumer Watchdog and the Eaton Fire Survivors Network, would require insurance companies to offer and renew coverage for homeowners who make their homes fire-safe.

SB 982 (Wiener), the Affordable Insurance and Recovery Act, would help make home insurance affordable and available in California. It would allow the Attorney General to take large oil and gas corporations to court to hold them accountable and return funds to Californians, who are currently bearing these costs through high insurance premiums.

AB 1642 (Harabedian) would establish statewide science-based standards for post-fire home testing and clearance. 70% of survivors whose homes have been tested have found contaminants above acceptable levels yet the largest hurdle to completing remediation is that insurance will not cover it, according to a Department of Angels survey.

CANTON, Ohio, Feb. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The article outlines how families can use daily living assistance and family support to promote independent living for adults with disabilities.

What should families know when seeking homemaker services and personal care services for adults with developmental disabilities? HelloNation has published the answer in a HelloNation article featuring insights from Home Healthcare Expert Kellan Roberts of R House Home Health Care Services in Canton, Ohio.

The HelloNation article explains that homemaker services and personal care services are designed to do more than complete daily tasks. They function as structured supports that promote independent living while maintaining safety and dignity for adults with developmental disabilities.

According to the article, homemaker services focus on maintaining a safe and organized home environment. This includes meal preparation, laundry, light cleaning, and grocery management. Consistent support in these areas reduces stress and allows individuals to focus on meaningful daily activities.

Personal care services address essential needs such as bathing, dressing, grooming, and mobility assistance. The article notes that these supports help individuals maintain routines and protect their well-being. When combined, homemaker services and personal care services create a stable foundation for long-term independent living.

The article describes Ohio waiver programs as a key pathway for accessing these services. These programs extend Medicaid-funded assistance to individuals who might otherwise require institutional care. By tailoring support to individual goals and needs, Ohio waiver programs allow families to design daily living assistance that fits each situation.

Skill-building is another important theme. The HelloNation article explains that daily living assistance often includes guidance and coaching, not just task completion. Providers may support an individual in preparing meals with increasing independence or developing better time management habits. Over time, these strategies can strengthen confidence and reduce reliance on others.

Family support plays a central role throughout the process. Even with professional assistance, families frequently coordinate services, communicate with providers, and monitor progress. The article emphasizes that active family involvement helps ensure care plans remain aligned with personal goals and adapt as needs change.

Careful planning is essential when selecting the right balance of services. Some adults may require more intensive personal care services, while others benefit from greater homemaker services. The article advises families to assess routines, physical abilities, cognitive needs, and preferences to build a flexible plan that evolves over time.

Community engagement is also addressed. Transportation, structured activities, and social opportunities can be integrated into comprehensive care plans. By connecting daily living assistance with broader participation, adults with developmental disabilities are better positioned to thrive at home and within their communities.

Ultimately, the article presents homemaker services and personal care services as tools for empowerment rather than simple assistance. When combined with Ohio waiver programs and steady family support, these services help make independent living a practical and sustainable reality.

Navigating Independence: A Family Guide to Homemaker and Personal Care Services for Adults with Disabilities features insights from Kellan Roberts, Home Healthcare Expert of Canton, Ohio, in HelloNation.

Recipients will preserve US history and develop the future workforce

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) has continued its commitment to Historically Black Colleges and Universities through its FY 2025 slate of discretionary grant recipients. Eight HBCUs and one HBCU alliance received a total of $1,725,261, furthering President Trump’s commitment to advancing HBCU excellence, as outlined in this White House Executive Order.

Keith Sonderling, Deputy Secretary of Labor said:

“President Trump’s commitment to support our nation’s HBCUs has been lived out through these grants. IMLS awards to HBCUs in FY 2025 are furthering the President’s commitments, preserving American historical and cultural treasures, increasing institutional resilience and emergency preparedness, and enhancing research activities. Each of the projects IMLS funded furthers the work of HBCU-affiliated museums and libraries while creating hands-on learning opportunities for students and emerging library and museum professionals.”

Some of the awarded HBCU projects are detailed below:

• The HBCU Library Alliance (HBCULA) – in collaboration with the American Institute of Physics (AIP), will address the significant under-documentation of contributions made by Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) in the field of physical sciences. The project will feature a three-day intensive summer workshop on oral history, digital collecting, and digital preservation for ten early and mid-career librarians from HBCUs. This workshop will lay the foundation for ongoing professional development and structured support over the project’s two-year period. The primary beneficiaries will be the participating librarians, their institutions, and the broader community interested in HBCU contributions to science. Expected outcomes include enhanced documentation and preservation skills among participants, leading to the creation of open educational resources. Resources will be disseminated widely to foster similar initiatives across the academic community.
• Jackson State University – The Margaret Walker Center (MWC) at Jackson State University will move its archives to secure, environmentally controlled, temporary storage during building renovations and HVAC replacement made necessary due to severe storm damage in 2023. During this project, the MWC will build upon the HBCU History and Culture Access Consortium (HCAC), a digital humanities initiative with the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture in two ways: digitizing nearly 1,000 oral histories most threatened by the environmental challenges in Ayer Hall and transferring 35,000 items from a fee-based digital platform to an open-source program used in the HCAC. These efforts will guarantee long-term preservation and access to MWC’s collections.
• Bishop State Community College – Bishop State Community College will inventory, catalog, and make accessible three collections of local 19th- and 20th-century African American materials. The collections contain documents, material culture, and oral history recordings that will provide further historical evidence and materials for research, public programs, and exhibits. Project activities include establishing an archival processing room, conducting a full inventory of the collections, interviewing community stakeholders regarding the collections, developing cataloging procedures, and training staff and interns. The results will be an informed description of the nature of the three collections within the archive and an accurate volume of the collections.
• Alabama State University – The Alabama State University (ASU) Archives Department (Archives) will increase its capacity to plan for and respond to disasters in the management of its collections. The project is designed in response to recommendations provided to the Archives in a Preservation Needs Report following a 2023 site visit by the Conservation Center for Art and Historic Artifacts. Activities include the creation of a disaster response plan, the purchase of disaster response supplies, providing disaster recovery training for staff, and supporting the professional appraisal of select collections items to obtain appropriate insurance coverage. As a result of this project, the Archives will have an updated disaster response plan, disaster response training for 25 staff members, appraisal reports for select materials, the assembly of a minimum of four disaster response kits, and documentary photographs of 70 pieces of art.
• Southern University at Shreveport – The Southern University Museum of Art (SUMAS) will improve the care and preservation of the art, artifacts, and other significant works that are part of the collection located in a site of historical importance on the Southern University Shreveport campus. This initiative aims to install two portable air conditioning units and four hygrometers to maintain optimal temperature and monitor humidity levels and upgrade the existing cold storage refrigeration unit at SUMAS. The project will result in upgraded displays utilizing digital signage and monitors, supporting collection care and management via professional development and consultation, developing policies and procedures for the care of the collection, documenting environmental conditions using electronic logs and monitoring, implementing appropriate building adaptations, and instituting a routine maintenance plan for the museum that includes housekeeping and remediation.

FY 2026 Notice of Funding Opportunities are now live.
