The People’s Gathering - Healing NJ Together - September 22, 2022

 

The NJ People’s Gathering is a first of its kind, open, online learning collaborative conference, being held on September 22, 2022, to bring together people from all walks of life to discuss healing solutions to the big issues affecting New Jersey’s communities:

  • Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs)
  • Collective trauma from the COVID-19 pandemic
  • Youth mental health and wellbeing
  • Material Needs (homelessness, hunger) being experienced within our communities
  • Substance Use Issues
  • Racism, Homophobia, and Misogyny
  • And more.

The NJ People’s Gathering will be held virtually and accessible for 24-hours beginning on September 22, 2022.

This special event is sponsored by the New Jersey Department of Children and Families’ Office of Resilience and Stockton University. We’ll be using an exciting new technology to support multiple meeting rooms that remain accessible for 36-hours! You have to register to see for yourself how innovative and interactive this conference will be. Please also invite members of your professional and community networks.
