Requires DHS to establish program to assist children with incarcerated non-custodial parents in enrolling in safety net programs.

This bill requires New Jersey's Department of Human Services (DHS) to create a program helping children (up to age 18) with an incarcerated non-custodial parent enroll in safety net programs. DHS must collaborate with corrections and court systems to identify affected children, then contact their custodial parent or guardian at least three times (including one written contact) to explain available benefits like food assistance, healthcare, and childcare subsidies. The program mandates DHS to track applications and provide a decision within 30 days of submission. It directly affects children in these circumstances and their caregivers, ensuring access to critical support programs.
