New Jersey State House Tour Office

Agency Details:

Our volunteers are a diverse group of professionals, retired educators, business owners, students and homemakers who share a love of history, an interest in politics and government and a desire to teach others about their state.

Description:
The New Jersey State House has been home to the Legislative and Executive branches of State Government since 1792. Annually, over 30,000 visitors walk in the footsteps of Abraham Lincoln and Woodrow Wilson to see democracy in action and to learn about New Jersey's rich history.

History:
In 1991, a change in the law directed the Office of Legislative Services to take responsibility for providing tours of the State House. The State House Tour Office was created which today relies on volunteers to welcome their fellow citizens to the seat of State government.

Our Mission is to enrich the lives of Central New Jersey residents by promoting effective volunteerism and service. We do this by:

Providing a free, user-friendly and current web site that functions as a volunteer clearinghouse, helping potential volunteers find suitable opportunities through organizations (e.g. non-profits, community groups) that will effectively use them.
Providing appropriate training and professional development to the organizations' leaders and staff, offering workshops and other resources to help them effectively recruit, utilize, retain, and recognize volunteers
Partnering with nonprofits, foundations, corporations, government agencies/officials, and other public and private entities to support initiatives and efforts that match our mission and contribute to the public good.
