S 2337 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires reporting of certain attempted and completed suicides by minors.

This bill requires New Jersey hospitals to annually report drug-related attempted and completed suicides involving minors (under 18) to the New Jersey Poison Control Center. Hospitals must provide data including the minor's age, ethnicity, gender, race, and the specific drug used, while protecting personal identifiers under privacy laws. The Poison Control Center will compile this data into an annual report for the Governor and Legislature to track suicide trends among minors. The law does not alter treatment protocols or require disclosure of private health information beyond what is legally permitted.
