About
The New Jersey Coalition for Sustainable Equality & Educational Justice is committed to protecting the long-term health of New Jersey communities by addressing overdevelopment, ensuring responsible construction practices, holding contractors accountable, and safeguarding the capacity and quality of public schools. Our goal is to create a sustainable future where development is responsible, education systems are supported, and communities thrive.
Our Pillars
Why This Matters
Preventing Over-development
Contractor Accountability
Protecting Public Schools from Overcrowding
Overdevelopment in New Jersey threatens the well being of our communities. Rapid, unplanned construction of luxury apartments and commercial projects puts strain on public schools, overcrowds classrooms, and challenges the ability of neighborhoods to remain safe and thriving. Sustainable development is not just a planning issue, it affects education, community resources, and the quality of life for every resident. This coalition provides a platform for residents and future educators to advocate for responsible growth, equitable opportunities, and a New Jersey where families and children can flourish.
