"Ruth Gilbert Alzheimer's Accessibility Act"; allows certain individuals diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease or dementia to receive, and caregivers transporting those individuals to utilize, parking privileges reserved for persons with disability.

S 4058, the "Ruth Gilbert Alzheimer's Accessibility Act," expands eligibility for disability parking privileges in New Jersey to include individuals diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease or dementia whose walking ability is limited, impaired, or creates a safety risk. It directly affects those with these conditions and their caregivers, who can now use standard disability parking spaces when transporting them. The bill amends existing law (P.L.1949, c.280) to add this group to the definition of "person with a disability," requiring certification from a physician, physician assistant, or nurse practitioner. This allows eligible individuals to obtain disability placards and license plates displaying the wheelchair symbol, matching the process for other disability-related parking access.
