Jersey City: LGBTQ + Task Force Winter Apparel Drive
The Mayor’s LGBTQ+ Task Force collected winter apparel including socks, hats, gloves, scarves and coats for those in need. The collection was a huge success and we thank all who donated!
Proposal to allow a person use their preferred name on a diploma
People who don’t identify with their birth names or legal names could have the option of having their preferred name on their diplomas. The Assembly Higher Education Committee recently approved legislation that would make it easier for students in all public and private schools to choose which name is displayed on records.
