Establishes pilot program in DOE to purchase and install electronic smoking device detectors in restrooms of certain public schools.
New Jersey's bill A 3032 establishes a three-year pilot program to study whether installing electronic smoking device detectors (for e-cigarettes/vapes) in school restrooms deters student vaping. The program targets public schools serving grades 7-12 in districts selected based on high youth vaping rates in their communities. Participating school districts must apply with data on student enrollment, restroom access, current vaping rates, and local community trends. The Department of Education will install detectors in selected schools and evaluate the program's effectiveness through a final report due by June 2029. This is a study-only initiative with no immediate mandate for all schools.
