Overview
This bill allows licensed outpatient substance use disorder treatment programs in New Jersey to offer housing to individuals in need of both treatment and housing. Programs can lease and manage housing units, providing treatment services and transportation, but under specific conditions, including separate contracts with repayment obligations and clear communication about the independent nature of the services. The bill also prohibits programs from receiving payment for referrals and ensures housing complies with local regulations.
