To improve the health and well-being of mothers, children, and families in Northern New Jersey through community programs, professional education, advocacy, and evidence-based services that advance health equity.
The Partnership for Maternal and Child Health of Northern New Jersey Inc centers its grantmaking on maternal and child health through sub-grantee program support. In the recent grant list, its largest award was $386,000 to Green & Healthy Homes Initiative Inc in Baltimore for program support, signaling a willingness to back implementation partners beyond its immediate region when the work fits its mission. The foundation also made large commitments to New Destiny Family Success Centers in Paterson and South Ward Promise Neighborhood in Newark, both at well above its median grant size. Across the list, recipients include community organizations, health coalitions, colleges, and family support providers working on perinatal health, home visiting, breastfeeding, immunization education, prematurity prevention, and related services. That mix shows a funder using restricted, program-level support to help local organizations deliver direct services rather than operating as a general-purpose grantmaker. Its portfolio is tightly tied to community programs, professional education, advocacy, and evidence-based services that advance health equity for mothers, children, and families in Northern New Jersey.
Maternal and child health is the clearest throughline in the recent awards. The Partnership for Maternal and Child Health of Northern New Jersey Inc gave $74,950 to Perinatal Health Equity Foundation in Orange for sub-grantee program support, and $27,825 to Southern NJ Perinatal Cooperative in Pennsauken for the same purpose. In community health, it backed Alliance Community Health Center in Jersey City with $81,215 in one award and $42,588 in another, both for sub-grantee program support. Family support work also appears repeatedly: Women Rising Inc in Jersey City received $99,135 and later $58,000, while New Destiny Family Success Centers in Paterson received $281,771 and later $58,000. The portfolio also includes higher-education and coalition partners such as Essex County College in Newark and Greater Newark Health Care Coalition Inc in West Orange.
Typical grant size sits at $27,475 at the 25th percentile, $45,095 at the median, and $81,215 at the 75th percentile. The recent list shows repeat support to the same recipients across years, including South Ward Promise Neighborhood, Jefferson Park Ministries, New Destiny Family Success Centers, Women Rising Inc, Alliance Community Health Center, York Street Project, Spring Street Community Development, and International Rescue Committee. That pattern fits a regranting model built around program-specific support rather than unrestricted operating grants. The foundation’s taxonomy also points to short-term project support and sub-grantee implementation. No application process is indicated in the data.

Grantmaking is local and heavily concentrated in New Jersey, with 88% of grants going to recipients in the HQ state.

Outside New Jersey, grants in the list went to Baltimore and New York City.
The recent grants show support for sub-grantee program implementers: community organizations, family success centers, health coalitions, colleges, and service providers. Examples in the list include Essex County College in Newark, Greater Newark Health Care Coalition Inc in West Orange, and Project Self-sufficiency of Sussex County in Newton, all funded for sub-grantee program support.
The foundation’s grant-size distribution is centered in the mid five figures: $27,475 at the 25th percentile, $45,095 at the median, and $81,215 at the 75th percentile. The recent list also includes several larger program-support awards above that range.
Yes. Several recipients appear in multiple years, including South Ward Promise Neighborhood, Jefferson Park Ministries, New Destiny Family Success Centers, Women Rising Inc, Alliance Community Health Center, York Street Project, Spring Street Community Development, and International Rescue Committee. That pattern suggests recurring support rather than isolated one-off grants.
The listed work aligns with maternal health, child health, perinatal mental health, home visitation programs, doula services, breastfeeding support, immunization education, prematurity prevention, and family support and resources. The grant list also shows related community-health partnerships and education-focused recipients.
