A retiree came to our Cedar Grove, NJ, food line every Friday for 3 months, then asked to volunteer. 3 years later, he’s still here weekly, checking IDs so each family gets support 🙌
💬“These people are really good people... I’m really happy.”

It's spooky season! 🎃 👻
If you're not feeling festive this season, that's okay. Help is always available if you or someone you know is struggling with #MentalHealth or substance use.
Help yourself and share to help others: samhsa.gov/find-help

Behind every bag of groceries in Cedar Grove, NJ, there’s a volunteer who cares. 🥫🥕
As one shared, “I feel a sense of reward now that I’m doing this.” 🙏
One box, one bag, one act of service at a time.

NJOHSP’s Hometown Security Initiative brings free security and preparedness training directly to New Jersey’s communities, campuses, and workplaces. Offered through New Jersey Shield, the program helps participants recognize threats, report suspicious activity, and take steps to protect themselves and others.

Autumn brings falling leaves to many parts of the country. Help reduce wildfire risk by clearing leaves, debris and other flammable materials from the area around your home. Create a fire-resistant zone at least 30 feet from your home. Learn more: ready.gov/wildfires
