New Jersey A3510 requires the Department of Corrections to report incidents of suicide and self-harm among inmates in Restorative Housing Units.

New Jersey A3510 mandates the Department of Corrections to publicly report data on acts of self-harm or suicide by inmates housed in Restorative Housing Units. These units house prison inmates removed from the general population as a disciplinary measure. The bill follows a 2024 recommendation by the Office of the Corrections Ombudsperson and aligns with existing regulations to ensure transparency and accountability in the treatment of inmates in these specialized housing units.
