On Saturday, June 15th, we witnessed an incredible turnout at the Housing Fair & Expo, where future and current homeowners gathered to gain invaluable resources, ask questions, and connect with experts dedicated to making the American Dream of homeownership a reality for all New Jerseyans.

A Day Filled with Learning and Opportunities

The event was a hub of activity and learning:

1. Workshops: Attendees participated in informative workshops, learning about down payment assistance programs and resources available to help families at risk of foreclosure.

2. Expert Consultations: Experts were on hand to answer a wide range of housing-related questions, providing personalized advice and guidance.

Today, we honor Juneteenth – a pivotal moment in American history. On June 19, 1865, freedom finally reached the last enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas, over two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. This day is a celebration of resilience, hope, and the enduring fight for equality. Let’s remember the past, celebrate progress, and continue working towards a just future for all. #Juneteenth #FreedomDay #CelebrateFreedom

In recognition of Juneteenth, the NCJAR board offices will be closed on Wednesday, June 19, 2024. We will reopen on Thursday, June 20, 2024.

Juneteenth is a day of profound historical significance and a time to honor the end of slavery in the United States. It represents a celebration of freedom, reflection, and unity.

Thank you for your understanding and support as we observe this important day. We look forward to serving you when we reopen.
