Renew NJ's Special Needs Housing Trust Fund Campaign Update
The Special Needs Housing Trust Fund (SNHTF) Steering Committee has developed A Plan for a HOME for All New Jerseyans!
It is designed as a blue print and executive summary and contains important information about why the SNHTF is so important, what it accomplished, why it must be replenished for people currently in need, how that can be done with various financing options, and the necessity of creating a statewide system where all New Jerseyans with special needs (including the homeless) have a place to call home. We need your active support to make this plan a success and to get the approval of state leaders.
Take Action!
(We are requesting action in addition to last year's efforts!)
