A 5606 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Amends Fiscal Year 2025 annual appropriations act to clarify distribution of Meals on Wheels Program grant to Jewish Federation of Northern New Jersey.

This bill corrects a technical error in the Fiscal Year 2025 appropriations act by specifying that $500,000 for the Meals on Wheels Program must be distributed to the Jewish Federation of Northern New Jersey (not the generic "Jewish Federation of New Jersey"). It directly affects the Jewish Federation of Northern New Jersey as the intended recipient of this state grant. The key mechanism is amending the appropriations line item to use the organization's official name, ensuring funds reach the correct provider. This is a procedural clarification, not a policy change to the program itself.
