S 1598 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Grants children places in resource family care right to have certain signage displayed in home.

This bill requires children placed in resource family care (foster care) to have conspicuous signage displayed in at least three locations within their home. The signage must list contact information for child abuse hotlines and mental health services. It directly affects foster children and their caregivers by mandating this specific display. The change amends New Jersey's Child Placement Bill of Rights Act to add this requirement, without altering other existing rights. The bill is currently pending in the Senate Health Committee.
