New Jersey S4604 mandates that organizations serving homeless individuals must use the Homeless Management Information System to monitor shelter bed.
New Jersey S4604 amends existing law to require all organizations providing services to homeless individuals to participate in the Homeless Management Information System. This system, administered by the New Jersey Housing and Mortgage Finance Agency or the Office of Homelessness Prevention, tracks the occupancy status of shelter beds. The bill also allows for grants to cover the costs associated with joining and participating in the system. Shelter operators must update the system about bed availability within one hour of a change in status.
