S 755 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires DOC report certain information annually.

New Jersey's S 755 requires the Department of Corrections (DOC) to produce an annual report to the Governor and Legislature detailing specific operational and inmate-related data for all state correctional facilities. The report must include facility occupancy rates, use-of-force incidents (with injury details), recidivism rates broken down by release type, reentry services provided (such as driver's licenses or birth certificates), mental health treatment statistics, staff training demographics, and commutation credit status. This data collection aims to increase transparency about prison conditions and services without including personally identifiable inmate information. The bill directly affects DOC operations and oversight of New Jersey's correctional system.
