The bill establishes the Reproductive Health Care Access Fund in New Jersey to enhance access to reproductive health care services. It aims to address gaps in abortion provider availability, particularly in southern counties, and to protect reproductive health clinics from threats, including violence and cyber attacks. The fund will support three key programs: the Reproductive Health Care Clinical Training Program, which ensures a sufficient number of trained health care professionals; the Reproductive Health Care Security Grant Program, which provides grants to facilities at high risk of unlawful activity for security measures; and the Reproductive Health Care Facility Loan Program, which offers loans to support the establishment and renovation of health care facilities.

Additionally, the bill mandates a statewide needs assessment by the Department of Health to identify gaps in reproductive health care access and the impact of out-of-state restrictions. It appropriates funds from the General Fund to support these initiatives, including a $5 million allocation for the OBGYN Clinical Training Program and another $5 million for the Reproductive Health Security Grant Program in the FY 2024 budget. The bill emphasizes the importance of ensuring safe and sustainable access to reproductive health care services in New Jersey.
