New Jersey A3627 establishes a statewide database for real-time shelter bed availability for homeless persons.

New Jersey A3627 mandates the New Jersey Housing and Mortgage Finance Agency to create a statewide database for real-time information on shelter bed availability for homeless individuals. This database, using data from the Homeless Management Information System, will allow shelter operators and local information providers to determine bed availability in their area. Shelters must update the database within an hour of a bed becoming available or being filled. This provision aims to help shelters that are full direct individuals to shelters with available beds.
