S 1206 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Permits qualified person with post-traumatic stress disorder to obtain handicapped parking placard.

S 1206 would allow individuals with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) to qualify for a handicapped parking placard in New Jersey. To be eligible, a person must have a PTSD diagnosis certified by a licensed psychiatrist or psychologist in New Jersey, a neighboring state, or at a military installation in New Jersey. This bill adds PTSD to the list of qualifying conditions under the state's handicapped parking program, aligning it with existing medical criteria. The application process would require this certification, following the same requirements used for other qualifying disabilities.
