Great news for some New Jersey families and caregivers of people with profound autism.

A new state law now gives parents more time and peace of mind when applying for guardianship so that important legal protections stay in place without interruption.

Autism New Jersey helped lead the advocacy for this change so that more families can feel secure and supported in protecting the wellbeing of their loved ones.

Learn how this law can make a real difference for adults with autism and their families and why stronger legal protections matter to our community.

When Jake was diagnosed with autism at the age of 3, his dad Jesse, a police officer, knew little about the disorder. Now, seven years later, Jesse is assisting law enforcement throughout New Jersey in gaining a better understanding of how to interact with people on the spectrum.

Despite their talent in the workplace, only 1/6 neurodiverse individuals are employed. New Jersey can change that by incentivizing job training and inclusive workplaces that ensure equal opportunity. Learn more about how we're working to empower our neurodiverse community 🧵

Anheuser-Busch announced today they will shut down its iconic brewery in Newark, New Jersey as part of a broader strategy to optimize production.
The 75-year-old facility, which is located right across the street from Newark Airport, will close early next year after its sale to the Goodman Group is completed.
The Newark branch produced many popular beverages, including Budweiser and Bud Light, Busch, Busch Light, Natural Light and Rolling Rock.
