Help Us Shine a Light on Local Government

Note From Admins

NJ21st is dedicated to expanding its reach and bringing fact-based, independent reporting to more communities. As a nonprofit platform, we focus entirely on local government—Town Councils, Boards of Education, County, and State—ensuring residents stay informed and engaged.

We’ve had great success in Berkeley Heights, helping residents stay up to date with local governance, and we want to extend the same benefits to neighboring communities.

How You Can Contribute

We rely on informed residents and independently minded government representatives to share insights, news, and analysis about their local governments. If you’re passionate about transparency and civic engagement, we welcome your contributions!

We invite submissions from residents and representatives of:
Berkeley Heights, Bernards, Bernardsville, Chatham Borough, Chatham Township, Dunellen, Far Hills, Garwood, Green Brook, Long Hill, Middlesex, Mountainside, New Providence, Peapack-Gladstone, Springfield (Union), Summit, Warren, Watchung, and Westfield.

Submitting Your Article

  • Email us at team@bhcw.io with your submission.
  • Include your name, town, and phone number (only your name will be published).
  • We do not accept anonymous posts, except in cases where a contributor faces potential retaliation from a government or nonprofit employer. Verified sources may submit confidential information for us to publish.

All articles must adhere to our terms, be substantive, and match our platform’s tone. Candidate endorsements are given more flexibility. Before submitting, we encourage you to check our published articles for reference.
