AI Summary
This bill establishes a permanent unit within the New Jersey Office of Emergency Management to address the access and functional needs of residents related to disasters and emergencies. The unit will be responsible for determining the needs of residents with disabilities, older adults, those with limited English proficiency, transportation or financial constraints, and coordinating with local/county offices to implement best practices to support these vulnerable populations before, during, and after emergencies. The bill aims to protect New Jersey's vulnerable residents, as the COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately impacted individuals with access and functional needs.
