Plain-English Summary

This bill requires the New Jersey Housing and Mortgage Finance Agency to give homeless shelter operators and referral services access to real-time information on shelter bed availability. Shelters must update this information within one hour of a bed becoming free or being filled, except for shelters serving victims of domestic violence. Shelters that do not comply with providing this information may lose state funding.
