Overview
This bill proposes to establish a virtual reality simulator program in New Jersey’s Department of Corrections (DOC) facilities. The goal is to supplement existing life skills and workforce training for inmates, utilizing immersive technology to improve retention of essential skills and aid in their transition back into the community. The program would cover areas like decision-making, communication, and financial literacy, and participation would be mandatory for eligible inmates. It also amends existing workforce training requirements to include a virtual reality component.
