Below is a list of candidates for Governor in New Jersey's 2025 election to help you engage them on children's issues. Advocates for Children of New Jersey sent our 2025 Election Advocacy Guide, asking them to respond to the three questions listed below. The candidate's response will be added below their name on this page as they are received.
- What specific steps will you take to ensure every working family in New Jersey has access to affordable, high-quality child care?
- Given New Jersey's ranking as 28th in maternal mortality, what policies will you prioritize to address racial disparities and improve Black and Hispanic maternal and infant health outcomes?
- How will you ensure that best practices are expanded and sustained to address the whole child in schools, supporting students' academic, social-emotional, and health needs?
