Requires Division of Children's System of Care to make changes to certain polices regarding the provision of family support and respite care services for certain eligible individuals.

This bill requires New Jersey's Division of Children's System of Care to change how family support and respite care services are provided to youth under 21 with developmental disabilities. It establishes a 12-month authorization period for services (replacing the current 90-day renewal), creates a separate "bank" of respite care hours for families (in addition to existing hours), and mandates an annual reevaluation of service needs. Families or guardians will receive a dedicated respite hour bank for agency-hired, agency-weekend, or self-hired care based on the individual's needs. The bill explicitly prohibits reducing existing respite care hours authorized under previous policies.
