This guidebook provides an overview of the consolidation process. It translates a complicated piece of state legislation into six easy “steps.” Read the guidebook and you’ll understand the basics of consolidation in New Jersey.

If you want to do more, Courage to Connect NJ can help you start a local “citizens group” to advocate for municipal reform in your own town. At that point, we will provide you with two additional documents, which are only available to CTC-NJ members:

• THE GUIDEBOOK TEMPLATES, which gives you the nuts and bolts for organizing a consolidation campaign. It has everything you need, including sample press releases, talking points, draft op-eds, and much more.
• MEDIA TRAINING GUIDE, which offers strategies and suggestions for creating a clear and consistent message about your consolidation efforts.

All materials produced by CTC-NJ are available in hard copy and electronic formats.
