The Junior League in New Jersey

Since its founding in 1901 by social activist Mary Harriman, The Junior League has evolved into one of the oldest, largest, and most effective women’s volunteer organizations in the world, encompassing more than 125,000 women in over 290 Leagues in four countries. For more than a century, The Junior League has been on the forefront of social reform, identifying problems—pollution, illiteracy, domestic violence, foster children without a safety net—and finding solutions. All Junior Leagues are members of the Association of Junior Leagues International.

New Jersey is home to eight Junior Leagues and over 1400 Junior League members:

• Bergen County
• Elizabeth-Plainfield
• Greater Princeton
• Monmouth County
• Montclair-Newark
• Morristown
• The Oranges and Short Hills
• Summit
