Sign to help save our Hudson County wildlife by petitioning to establish a rehabilitation center within our county. The closest facility exists 1hr+ away, resulting in our emergency services handling specialized wildlife calls without having any humane structured services for them to go to.
I want to start by acknowledging something: Christ Hospital was not a well-run hospital. It has not been for years. That was on purpose.
The owners have always known that the land the hospital was built on was very valuable real estate, and current owner Hudson Regional Health took over Christ Hospital to purposefully run it further into the ground to justify tearing it down and building 2,000 units of luxury housing, as evidenced by their own submissions to the Jersey City Zoning Board.
Christ Hospital needs to not only be resurrected, but it needs to become a state or county-run public hospital. Please attend the hearing and demand the following: 1. Take the hospital out of HRH's hands by setting up a retainer to reopen and run the hospital temporarily, and 2. Use eminent domain to seize the hospital and run it as a public hospital, complete with updates and improvement it desperately needs.
When sweet Bigotes was found outside, she was in heartbreaking condition. She was extremely thin and emaciated, her fur was dirty and unkempt, she was constantly drooling, and her little tongue was hanging out.
We soon learned why: Bigotes had Stage IV periodontal disease. Her dental disease was so severe that her entire mouth was affected, leaving her in constant, excruciating pain. The only way to give this beautiful girl relief was to remove all of her teeth. Can you imagine trying to survive on the streets while also living with that kind of pain?
Bigotes has already fought so hard just to make it this far. Her dental surgery was absolutely necessary, and we would do it all again in a heartbeat, but the cost of her surgery, medications, veterinary care, and recovery is a huge financial burden for our rescue.
We urgently need your help to cover Bigotes’ medical expenses. Every donation brings us closer to paying her veterinary bills and giving her the comfortable, healthy life she should have had all along.
Bigotes' latest medical bills are included in the fundraiser linked above.
If you can't donate, please share this post within your community. Sharing costs nothing and can help us reach someone who can make a difference.
Purrfect Catpanion is a 100% volunteer‑run 501(c)(3) focused on rescuing friendly street cats, providing medical care and socialization, and matching them with loving homes. By donating today, you help Bigotes heal and move one step closer to a safe forever home.

This important grassroots battle against the LSP- desecrating marina lease needs a second surge of angry August phone calls to the Governor (but respectfully expressed to the 609-292-6000 staffperson) to urge the Governor to order the DEP to reject the unsigned new 60 yr marina lease allowing the major privatization expansion of the 70 feet high, 2.5 acre Gargantuan Commercial Boat Storage Warehouse along the park's northern entrance which will severely harm LSP's character, openness and purpose!
The Governor should act decisively and listen to 50 years of the Overwhelming Voice of the People against privatization and commercialization of this priceless, sacred park with its open space and open views and Not to the multi-billion dollar marina lobbyists.

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for a virtual Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) or PHP for mental health that accepts Medicaid/NJ FamilyCare.
I currently have Aetna better health medicaid and have already contacted several programs, but unfortunately most of them don’t accept medicaid or only accept it for substance use program and not mental health.
I’m starting to wonder wether Aetna is part of the problem and I might have the option to switch my Nj family care plan so If anyone has had experience with getting fully virtual IOP or PHP with a NJ family care plan I would love to hear it please. Any recommendations or experiences are appreciate it!
