New Jersey Institute for Social Justice
The New Jersey Institute for Social Justice has two programs that increase economic opportunity for urban residents. The New Careers Project is a transitional jobs program for adults 18 and over who have recently been released form prison. Newark/Essex County Construction Careers (N/CCC) is a pre-apprenticeship program that prepares Newark residents for union apprenticeships. This year N/ECCC will begin a green jobs training program, focusing on brown-fields remediation, while New Careers will prepare a temporary labor force for the City of Newark’s Clean & Green Initiative.
