Bill overview
This bill requires the New Jersey Department of Human Services (DHS) to create a program offering financial incentives to encourage private investment in child care facilities located in ‘child care deserts’ – areas where the need for childcare exceeds the available supply. The DHS will work with several state agencies to design these incentives, which could include tax credits, exemptions, and loan guarantees. The goal is to expand access to quality childcare, particularly in underserved communities.
