Icons for health & medicine, media

A Community Forum panel discussion on NJ’s addiction crisis, produced by NJTV at the Newark Boys and Girls Club, is part of a collective effort by NJ journalists to generate more reporting and more attention on the addiction crisis. The collective impact project was generated at the Dodge Imagine Great Things convening facilitated by Gathering Ground.
