S 3030 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes "Bring Veterans to New Jersey Program."

This bill establishes the "Bring Veterans to New Jersey Program" within the Department of Military and Veterans' Affairs. It provides relocation assistance of up to $5,000 per household to veterans who move to New Jersey for employment with participating employers, who must first agree to the program. Veterans must create a profile via a contracted nonprofit, accept a job, work for 12 months, and document eligible expenses (like moving costs) for employer reimbursement. Employers are reimbursed by the state up to $5,000, and veterans may have reimbursement waived if they leave due to hardship (e.g., family emergency), not fault.
