Establishes Reproductive Health Care Professionals Loan Redemption Program; appropriates $5 million.
This bill establishes a program to repay student loans for reproductive health care professionals in New Jersey who work at approved facilities providing abortion services. It appropriates $5 million to cover up to 18-28% of qualifying student loans per year of service (maxing at $200,000 total), requiring participants to work at approved sites for 1-4 years. Eligibility prioritizes professionals in counties with provider shortages, and applicants must be New Jersey residents employed in reproductive health care. The program explicitly includes abortion care as part of "reproductive health services" under the bill's definition.
