This bill mandates the Director of the Office of Homeland Security and Preparedness to create a training program specifically for first responders on how to effectively respond to emergencies that arise in war zones. The program must be developed within 180 days of the bill's effective date and should include comprehensive training on various aspects such as what to expect when responding to wartime emergencies, strategies for treating injuries, identifying hazards unique to war zones, and methods for self-protection against attacks and hazardous materials. Additionally, the training will address the psychological impact of responding to such emergencies.

First responders are required to complete this training program biannually to ensure they are adequately prepared for potential military attacks, especially in light of current global tensions. The Director is also tasked with consulting various military and emergency management entities, as well as seeking input from relevant organizations and emergency medical response entities in New Jersey to inform the development of the training program. This initiative underscores the importance of equipping first responders with the necessary skills and knowledge to protect themselves and the public in the event of an act of war.
