Advocates for Change

In addition to facilitating the exchange of information between the eight New Jersey leagues, State Council also oversees a special committee called the State Public Affairs Committee (SPAC).  SPAC is a statewide, non-partisan committee made up of representatives from each of the eight Junior Leagues in New Jersey who join together to take action on select state and national public issues.  Specifically, SPAC advocates for initiatives and legislation to improve the quality of life for women and children; improve the quality of education; and improve the environment.  Our current issue areas include human trafficking, childhood obesity, cord blood donation, pesticide use on school grounds, domestic violence and foster care.
