"New Jersey Fostering Success Voucher Act"; provides rental assistance and case management services for certain young adults leaving foster care or kinship care; appropriates $10 million.
The New Jersey Fostering Success Voucher Act (S 1780) provides rental assistance and case management services to young adults aged 18-26 who have been in foster care or kinship care and are experiencing homelessness or at imminent risk of homelessness. The bill establishes a voucher program administered by the Department of Community Affairs, offering rental assistance comparable to the state’s existing rental assistance program and requiring participants to engage with approved case management agencies. To qualify, applicants must reside in New Jersey, meet moderate-income guidelines, and voluntarily agree to case management services. The program is funded with a $10 million appropriation from the General Fund, effective immediately upon enactment.
