Establishes a statewide database for real-time tracking of shelter bed availability for the homeless in New Jersey.
The bill mandates the New Jersey Housing and Mortgage Finance Agency to provide real-time data on shelter bed occupancy to homeless shelter operators and local referral providers, excluding shelters for victims of domestic violence. This data, sourced from the Homeless Management Information System, aims to help operators determine bed availability in their area. Shelter operators must update the system within an hour of a bed becoming available or being filled.
