You may be able to get assistance with travel costs when you begin to work. If you take public transportation, you may receive a one-time free monthly bus or train pass from NJ TRANSIT. You may also be eligible for an additional six months of bus or train passes: the first three months are free and you pay only one-half the cost for the second three months.
