"New Jersey residents now have an education solution that puts existing financial literacy initiatives under one umbrella and provides valuable follow-up as part of the Network.  The State of New Jersey is proud to be part of a coordinated public/private partnership like NJFLAN that benefits our state's children and adults and puts them on a path to financial independence."

Former: Acting Governor Richard J. Codey

State of New Jersey

"NJFLAN offers financial tools for all ages.  Consumers need to manage their finances, make sound financial decisions and be responsible financial stewards.  Many organizations offer education, helpful counseling, and partial solutions.  But there was no unified approach and scant coordination of various initiatives.  NJFLAN fills an important need."

Donald Bryan, Acting Commissioner

NJ Department of Banking and Insurance

"What we like about this network is it will put educational and resource materials directly into the hands of children and young adults.  The booklets are written for all age levels, and help go a long way in helping to stimulate an interest in learning about financial affairs and how to manage their money without sinking into debt."

Former: H. Robert Tillman, Director

NJ Department of Banking

NJ Commerce, Economic Growth & Tourism Commission

"I can think of nothing more timely, more relevant, and more necessary than a concentrated, well thought-out network dedicated exclusively to understanding a very complex, yet essential part of our everyday living.  We can all learn something more about the financial aspects of our daily living through this network.  We are proud to be a participant in this ongoing effort."

Former: Samuel J. Damiano, C.C.E., President
