Excludes certain income earned from health promotion or disease prevention work from income eligibility determination under NJ FamilyCare, WFNJ, and NJ SNAP.

This bill excludes the first $5,000 earned annually in income from health promotion or disease prevention work as a community outreach worker from eligibility calculations for NJ FamilyCare (Medicaid), Work First New Jersey (WFNJ), and NJ SNAP. It directly affects temporary hourly or stipend-based workers employed by community organizations, health systems, or local health departments who connect people to health services. The key provision ensures this specific income - earned through outreach activities like sharing health information or connecting individuals to services - is not counted when determining eligibility for these assistance programs. The bill defines "community outreach worker," "disease prevention program," and "health promotion program" to clarify eligibility.
