Why is it important to rely on resources in your state and community?
The state of New Jersey is very involved when families are struggling in the state. As such, a healthy community is one in which all residents have access to a quality education, safe and healthy homes, adequate employment, transportation, physical activity, and nutrition, in addition to quality health care. Unhealthy communities lead can lead to homelessness, drug addiction or mental health issues.
I conducted a list of resources for everyone to benefit from just in case anyone needs some help.
