About the Consortium

To illustrate its commitment to collaboration, the Jewish Renaissance Foundation is the founder and administrator of the Middlesex County East Health and Human Services Consortium, an inter-agency coalition of local, county and regional providers who work in or serve all of Middlesex County, with a focus on the Borough of Carteret, the Borough of Metuchen, the Borough of Highland Park, the Borough of Sayreville, the City of Perth Amboy, the City of South Amboy, the Township of Edison and the Township of Woodbridge.  The Consortium also includes families, youth, community leaders and residents who offer invaluable civic, grassroots based perspectives.

The Consortium meets five (5)  times a year (October, December, February, April and June) on the first or second Tuesday of the month. At the meetings, the members share the latest information on their agencies, discuss opportunities for organizations to collaborate, and listen to an outside presenter who provides information on the topic or theme of the month.  Currently, there are over 75 local, county, and statewide organizations who serve as active members.
