A 4332 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Establishes central registry for, and provides for informational outreach to, senior citizens living in New Jersey.

This bill establishes a voluntary central registry for New Jersey residents aged 65 or older, managed by the Division of Aging Services. Seniors can register to provide basic information (name, address, contact details, income level) to receive wellness check calls during emergencies, service information (like NJ SAVE program links and Area Agencies on Aging locations), and statistical reporting. The registry ensures privacy - data is confidential, not public record, and users can request removal after 21 days, after which records are destroyed. The state will also run a multilingual awareness campaign targeting residents aged 64+ to promote registry enrollment.
