NJ PACE

New Jersey Political Action for Candidate Election (PACE) builds political power for social workers through candidate elections and is the political action arm of the NASW-NJ.

The New Jersey PACE Board of Trustees endorses and contributes to local election candidates and those running for State Senate and General Assembly; national PACE makes endorsements in U.S. Congressional races with advise from the Chapter.
