NEW JERSEY INSTITUTE FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE FINANCIAL INFORMATION
 

The New Jersey Institute for Social Justice is committed to the accuracy and transparency of its financial practices. We have adopted Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the United States of America, as applicable to NJISJ, as issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. NJISJ is audited annually by a certified public accountant in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and Government Auditing Standards.

Nearly four-fifths of NJISJ funds support programs. The percentage of expenses for fund raising and management compares favorably with that of other nonprofit social justice organizations. We work hard to control our costs to insure that the maximum amount of funds is expended on programs.
