S 710 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires DCA to conduct surveys and report data related to homelessness in administering the Rental Assistance Navigation Program.

S 710 requires New Jersey's Department of Community Affairs (DCA) to conduct surveys with tenants who have recently been evicted (if they agree to participate) and report the collected data. The survey collects demographic details, immediate housing needs (like access to shelters or permanent housing), geographic relocation information, and financial circumstances of evicted households. This data must be reported to the agency coordinating New Jersey's HUD-mandated homelessness counts. The bill does not change the Rental Assistance Navigation Program's eviction prevention services but adds a data collection requirement to better understand homelessness outcomes for those who were evicted.
