Association for Children of New Jersey

Association for Children of New Jersey (ACNJ) is a statewide non-profit child advocacy organization.  ACNJ works on behalf of children and families by conducting research, developing and supporting legislation, and maintaining oversight of the policies and programs of our state administrative agencies. ACNJ advocates on a broad range of issues affecting New Jersey’s children and families. Special areas of attention include:  budget advocacy, public policy, early education, child health, community advocacy and outreach.  ACNJ operates a Children’s Legal Resource Center to meet the demand for information on the status of the law and children’s rights.
