A 4312 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Grants children placed in resource family care right to have certain signage displayed in home.

This bill grants children placed in resource family care (foster care) the right to have visible signage displayed in their home. Specifically, it requires three conspicuous signs listing contact information for child abuse hotlines and mental health services. The signage must be placed in clear view within the home, making it accessible to children who may need immediate assistance. This change directly affects children in foster care placements across New Jersey, ensuring they have clear access to support resources.
