"It's not easy to come to work every day & face the reality that some of NJ's children are abused or neglected...you have made it your mission to address the issues that lead to abuse, & support the children and adults that have suffered from it"- @FirstLadyNJ #ResilientNJ

"People who experience profound neglect have a different life course because of that. We have to pay attention to trauma and chronic adversity. They both matter." #ResilientNJ

Up to 40% of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities experience co-occurring mental health challenges. How can we better support them and their families?

Congratulations #heroes #newjersey #Children #love #facsnj
