Establishes grant program for homeless veterans shelters.
S 1108 creates a grant program within New Jersey's Department of Military and Veterans' Affairs to fund homeless veterans' shelters in Atlantic, Cape May, and Cumberland counties. The bill requires these three southern counties to submit applications proposing specific locations and property they will provide for the state to develop and operate shelters. Grants will be awarded based on criteria set by the Adjutant General, using funds appropriated by the legislature. This directly addresses geographic barriers homeless veterans face in accessing shelter services, particularly during extreme weather, by establishing new facilities in underserved southern counties.
