Not For Profit. Independent. Fact Based.
NJ21st (formerly Berkeley Heights Community Watch) is an independent, non-profit platform committed to increasing transparency and accountability within local government, focusing on the 21st District in New Jersey. The initiative began as a response to perceived secrecy and misinformation in local government decisions, particularly around education and budgeting, and has expanded to cover a broader range of issues affecting various communities in the district.
NJ21st’s mission is to provide residents with a factual, citizen-driven perspective on local governance, advocate for evidence-based decision-making, and offer a forum for public discourse that is free from corporate and political influence.
