A 1607 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Directs certain recoveries of federal funds for services to persons with developmental disabilities be used for grants to support community infrastructure purposes.

This bill directs New Jersey to use excess federal funds received for developmental disability services - above what was budgeted - to create a new fund for community infrastructure. The funds first cover deficits in contracts with community providers, then support one-time grants for facilities, accessibility equipment, and assistive technology that directly help people with developmental disabilities live in community settings. Priority uses include repairing housing/transportation infrastructure and purchasing accessibility tools. The bill requires annual reports to legislative committees on how these funds are spent.
