As you may or may not know, NORML-NJ is a volunteer organization and is comprised almost entirely of dedicated individuals willing to sacrifice some of their time for a noble pursuit.  As such we heavily rely on the kind generosity of countless people to assist us in our crucial mission of ending marijuana prohibition.  If marijuana reform is important to you, it has never been a better time to volunteer a little time for NORML-NJ.  With the passage of the New Jersey Compassionate Use Medical Marijuana Act, the momentum is on our side and we must strike while the iron is hot!

Although there are many ways to get involved, one interesting area in particular that needs immediate help concerns NORML-NJ’s Ballot Initiative to make marijuana the lowest police enforcement priority in various municipalities around the State.  These “Low-Pri” initiatives, as they are known, are vital to the reform movement’s forward inertia, have been exciting and rewarding to all those involved and instill a massive sense of accomplishment.  We have been making great progress and have initiatives set up in numerous towns and cites throughout New Jersey.  Success, as always, depends upon support from people like you.  To find out more about our exciting Low-Pri Initiatives and how you can help, or simply to find out how NORML-NJ can start a Low-Pri Initiative in your town, contact us.

Our coordinator is ready and waiting to speak with you in an effort to determine the best volunteer fit for you, given your particular schedule constraints and skill set.  Even if you only have a small amount of time to give us, we will gladly welcome you into our NORML-NJ volunteer network where you will meet like-minded individuals that share your desire for marijuana reform!

If you desire more rational marijuana policies in New Jersey in the near future, jump aboard this fast moving train and help to make a difference in the lives of millions!  We need your support today!

New Jersey Legislature Passes Medical Marijuana Bill !

January 11, 2010  7:15 PM   By Frederic DiMaria, Jr., Esq.       A profound sigh of relief can be heard resonating deeply throughout our State this evening as it appears New Jersey’s sick and dying have finally won their right to legally access the immense benefit of medical marijuana.   The full New Jersey State Legislature has just now passed the Compassionate Use Medical Marijuana Act A804/S119 permitting and regulating the state-wide use of marijuana as medicine.

Governor Corzine has previously expressed his intent to sign the bill into law once passed.  Subsequently, today’s long-awaited victory represents New Jersey’s pivotal step towards a more rational marijuana policy in our immediate future. 

NORML-NJ would like to thank all who have worked so hard to make medical marijuana in New Jersey a reality.
