Cumberland County Code Blue Coalition
This winter season (2020-2021), M25 will no longer be the operating provider for Code Blue. Still, we are working closely with county and municipal leaders to effectively transition this vital community service to their administration. The M25 Initiative has committed to financially assisting the Municipal and County Code Blue Programs during the 2020-2021 season through our fundraising efforts. Additionally, we are continuing to help our homeless neighbors find permanent housing through the Housing First Collaborative (www.endhomelessness2020.com).
We remain committed to our goal of housing 100 chronically homeless individuals by the end of 2020.
If you are in need of shelter, please call 211 or visit https://www.nj211.org
