Let’s Get Sandy Families Home

NJOP members gathered with Governor Murphy as he announced the supplemental fund

It’s been 8 long years since Superstorm Sandy. In those years, some of us were able to get home, others lost their homes forever, and some of us are still fighting to get home.

Two years ago, on the 6th Sandy Anniversary, we stood with Governor Murphy as a new $50 million supplemental funding program for Sandy Survivors who were not home was announced. We celebrated, hugged, danced and cried together. We thought this was what was needed to finally cross the finish line and get everybody home. Yet, we are now at the 8th Sandy Anniversary and Sandy Survivors are still not home.

We know it’s possible to get everybody home, but we need your help. Sign our petition to tell Governor Murphy to get the Supplemental funding flowing to Sandy Survivors who desperately need it to finally move their projects forward. And make sure they have real mortgage or rental assistance to help them get there since they lost their rental assistance starting in August.
