A 3468 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires each State cabinet level department to establish office dedicated to language and disability access.

This bill requires every New Jersey state cabinet department to create a dedicated division focused on removing barriers for people with disabilities. The division must develop an access plan aligned with federal disability law, implement communication strategies (like sign language interpretation and translations), and ensure physical accessibility for both department employees and service recipients. Departments must also submit annual public reports detailing progress in improving access. The law applies directly to all state agencies with cabinet-level structure, aiming to promote full inclusion through concrete accessibility measures.
