A 2636 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

"Madison Holleran Proper Reporting Act"; requires institutions of higher education to post information on student suicides and attempted suicides on website.

The "Madison Holleran Proper Reporting Act" (Bill A 2636) requires New Jersey colleges and universities to publicly post on their websites the total number of enrolled students who died by suicide or attempted suicide in the previous academic year. Starting with the 2019-2020 school year, institutions must update this information annually for public access. The law aims to increase transparency about student mental health outcomes, aligning with data showing suicide as the third-leading cause of death for New Jersey youth aged 10-24. It does not impose new mental health services but mandates annual reporting of aggregate statistics.
