S 3294 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Directs Secretary of Higher Education to develop career and education guide for post secondary students with disabilities.

S 3294 requires New Jersey's Secretary of Higher Education to create a publicly available career and education guide specifically for undergraduate and graduate students with disabilities attending the state's colleges and universities. The guide must detail institutional resources (like disability career centers, internships, and accommodations), provide practical career guidance (including employer disclosure tips and workplace accommodation strategies), and list national/regional support organizations. It mandates that each higher education institution in New Jersey report its available services to the Secretary for inclusion in the guide. The Secretary must post the finalized guide on the state's website within 90 days of the bill's enactment. This policy directly affects students with disabilities navigating higher education and career transitions across all New Jersey institutions.
