Alongside our supporters and partners, the Institute has consistently effected meaningful and transformative change in New Jersey.

What We’ve Accomplished

We passed one of the strongest state voting rights act in the country.

We championed the introduction of the Truth, Reconciliation and Repair Act, a bill that requires NJ to apologize and finally accept responsibility for slavery – and requires public schools to teach the truth about our history.

We championed an Executive Order that restored jury service for more than 350,000 people previously denied it due to criminal convictions.
