This year we had 43 grant applications representing 10 counties across the state. 44% of our grant winning sites are located in communities where the median household income is below the state average of $99,781(2023 American community Survey) and 68% of our grant winning sites are located in communities where at least 24% of the population identifies as BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color).
Thank you to all of our grant applications this year and we look forward to seeing what all of our 2025 NJMD sites have in store!
