S 890 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes "Task Force on Supportive Technology for Individuals with Developmental Disabilities."

This bill creates a 15-member "Task Force on Supportive Technology for Individuals with Developmental Disabilities" in New Jersey. The task force will study how supportive technology (like devices or tools that help with daily living, work, or education) can better serve people with developmental disabilities, identify barriers to its use, and recommend policy changes. It includes government officials, disability advocates, service providers, and individuals with lived experience. The task force must submit its findings and recommendations to the Governor and Legislature within 18 months. The bill does not enact immediate changes but sets up a process to study and improve access to supportive technology for this population.
