Despite recent complications with federal funding, NJCH remains committed to identifying and responding to the needs of the people of New Jersey. We hope for the resumption of operating support from NEH with the 2026 federal budget year.
In the meantime, after a series of listening sessions around the state, we are prepared to continue to take the public humanities forward for all New Jerseyans. Learn more about those listening sessions and their takeaways here.
How you can support the humanities in New Jersey
- Contact your local members of Congress to demand restored funding for the humanities.
