Directs Commissioner of Education to develop sensitivity training program for high school athletic directors, coaches, and sports officials of interscholastic athletic sports programs.
This bill requires New Jersey's Commissioner of Education to create a sensitivity training program for high school athletic directors, coaches, and sports officials. The training covers topics including gender and sexual orientation, race and ethnicity, disabilities, religious tolerance, unconscious bias, and diversity. It mandates that all coaches, athletic directors, and sports officials complete this training every four years (with new hires completing it in their first year), and sports officials must certify completion when applying or renewing. The program must be developed with input from the Division on Civil Rights and updated to reflect current diversity practices.
