Establishes New Jersey Commission on Health Equity.

This bill establishes the New Jersey Commission on Health Equity within the Department of Health to address health disparities linked to racism and systemic inequities. The 27-member commission, including department heads and a local health department representative, will develop strategies to improve health outcomes for communities of color. Key provisions require collecting data on health outcomes by race, ethnicity, and language; making recommendations on implicit bias training for healthcare providers; and establishing a health equity framework for government decision-making. The commission must report annually to the Governor and Legislature on progress and recommendations, directly affecting state agencies, healthcare providers, and communities experiencing health disparities.
