Bill > A5232

This bill revises the "Paratransit Services Improvement Act" and transfers $6 million from the New Jersey Transit Corporation (NJT) to the Department of Human Services (DHS) to develop and implement a paratransit best practices pilot program. The bill outlines a three-phase process, where the first phase involves the DHS Division of Developmental Disabilities selecting a qualified community organization to develop a training module on paratransit best practices, the second phase involves the selected organization training up to six paratransit providers (three from the northern region and three from the southern region of the state), and the third phase involves integrating the training module and software package for broader adoption by paratransit providers across the state.
