Requires Director of Division of Housing and Community Resources in DCA to establish program to reimburse municipality which provides services to nonresident homeless persons; requires participation in Homeless Management Information System; appropriates $10 million.

This New Jersey bill requires the state's Division of Housing and Community Resources to create a reimbursement program for local shelters that serve homeless individuals from other municipalities. Under the plan, a municipality would share the costs of providing services like food, shelter, and transportation to nonresident homeless people, with the state providing $10 million in funding to support the initiative. To qualify for reimbursement, shelters must submit applications verifying that the individuals served do not live in the municipality where the shelter is located, and the program excludes cases where people voluntarily moved for work or family reasons. The legislation also mandates that all participating shelters use the Homeless Management Information System to track occupancy and service data in real time.
