A 1430 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Directs Secretary of Higher Education to develop career and education guide for post secondary students with disabilities.

This bill requires New Jersey's Secretary of Higher Education to create a public career and education guide for undergraduate and graduate students with disabilities attending state colleges. The guide must detail campus resources (like disability career centers, internships, and accommodations such as note-takers or accessible housing), provide job-seeking guidance (including disclosure strategies, accommodation requests, and workers' rights), and list disability-focused support organizations. It will be developed with input from the Labor Commissioner and college leaders, then made freely available online. The bill directly supports students with disabilities in navigating both academic and career pathways.
