Establishes task force on missing women and girls who are Black, Indigenous, or people of color.
This bill creates a task force to address the issue of missing and murdered Black, Indigenous, and people of color women and girls in New Jersey. The task force will consist of 15 members appointed by state officials and legislators, including representatives from law enforcement, health, and children's services agencies, as well as individuals directly impacted by the crisis. Its duties include developing culturally competent training for first responders, creating prevention resources for BIPOC communities, analyzing data on missing persons cases, identifying locations linked to abductions, and launching a statewide public awareness campaign. The task force must submit its findings and recommendations to the Governor and Legislature within 18 months, and the bill will expire 60 days after that report is submitted.
