A 2447 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Makes FY 2021 supplemental appropriation of $1,250,000 for Minorities in Police (MIP) recruiting grant program.

This bill appropriates $1,250,000 from the General Fund to fund the Minorities in Police (MIP) Grant Program under New Jersey's Department of Law and Public Safety. It directly supports law enforcement agencies and training academies by providing $250 per qualified minority candidate recruited and enrolled in police training. The funds are specifically for recruiting minority candidates, with unspent balances carried forward to the next fiscal year. The bill establishes a concrete financial mechanism to incentivize recruitment, without specifying broader diversity goals or outcomes.
