Clean Communities Grant Program

New Jersey Clean Communities is a statewide, comprehensive, litter-abatement program created by the passage of the Clean Communities Act in 1986. The Act provides a funding source for the program and guidelines for the use of funds. Municipalities and counties receive Clean Communities grants in the form of state-aid each year. Funding is also allocated to the statclean_communitiese parks service and the Clean Communities Council.  Our mission is to reduce litter on public places, promote the volunteer cleanup of public lands and sustain a reduction in litter through education.
