Requires DOC to assign transgender inmate to State correctional facility based on inmate's gender identity and use inmate's preferred gender pronoun.

This bill requires New Jersey's Department of Corrections (DOC) to assign transgender and non-binary inmates to state correctional facilities based on their self-identified gender identity or expression (not their sex assigned at birth), and to use their preferred gender pronouns. During initial intake, DOC staff must ask inmates about their gender identity, transgender status, and preferred pronouns - without disciplining those who decline to answer - and must assign facilities accordingly. Staff, volunteers, and contractors who consistently fail to use preferred pronouns face discipline under existing rules. The bill directly affects transgender, non-binary, and intersex inmates within New Jersey's state correctional system.
