This bill aims to enhance support for neurodiverse students at county colleges in New Jersey by establishing several programs and appropriating a total of $1.475 million. It mandates the creation of a two-year Accessibility Coordinator Pilot Program, which will allocate funds to three selected county colleges for hiring accessibility coordinators. These coordinators will provide academic advising, assist students in accessing resources, and connect them with job opportunities. The selection of participating colleges will follow a competitive application process, and the Office of the Secretary of Higher Education will oversee the program's administration. Additionally, the bill requires the New Jersey Council of County Colleges to offer professional development and training sessions for faculty and staff to better support neurodiverse students.

Furthermore, the bill establishes a County College Inclusive STEM Infrastructure Grant Program to provide financial assistance for capital construction projects aimed at improving facilities for neurodiverse students, particularly in STEM and artificial intelligence fields. The Secretary of Higher Education will set up a grant application process and determine funding amounts, with individual grants ranging from $25,000 to $50,000. The bill encourages collaboration between county colleges and four-year institutions to enhance professional development, align courses for transferring students, and develop partnerships that support neurodiverse students.
