Requires federal funding to be made available to Governor's Council on Alcoholism and Drug Abuse to support Alliance to Prevent Alcoholism and Drug Abuse if needed to offset unanticipated decrease in dedicated revenues.
S 395 ensures funding for New Jersey's Alliance to Prevent Alcoholism and Drug Abuse if state funds fall short during fiscal years 2022-2023. It requires the Governor to use federal pandemic relief funds (like CARES Act or American Rescue Plan money) to cover gaps when dedicated state revenues - collected from criminal surcharges and alcohol taxes - prove insufficient. The Alliance uses these funds to support community coalitions that run school programs, parent education, student intervention, and public awareness campaigns against substance abuse. This bill applies only to 2022-2023 and expires June 30, 2023.
