A 771 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Directs certain recoveries of federal funds for services to persons with developmental disabilities be used for grants to support community infrastructure purposes.

This New Jersey bill (A 771) directs excess federal funds received through Community Care Waivers for developmental disabilities services to support community-based improvements. It affects persons with developmental disabilities living in community settings by requiring that any funds exceeding the annual budget estimate - after covering provider contract deficits - be deposited into a new Developmental Disabilities Community Infrastructure Fund. The fund provides one-time grants prioritizing repairs to residential/transportation facilities, accessibility equipment, and assistive technology. The bill mandates annual reporting to legislative committees on how these funds are used.
