Advocates for Children of New Jersey is strictly non-partisan and accepts no government funding for advocacy, freeing them to focus on their sole mission - helping children. ACNJ advances and strengthens policies and programs that promote equitable opportunities for all New Jersey children and youth. They identify needs from parents and community partners, data, research, and policy analysis and address them through education, engagement, and collaboration with policymakers, advocates, and the public.
The Grunin Foundation provides support for ACNJ's KidLaw Resource Center, which is New Jersey’s foremost information source on children and the law. Thousands of parents and caretakers, children, service providers, educators, attorneys, court staff and volunteers and others contact the KidLaw Resource Center for information and assistance, publications and training on legal issues affecting children.
