The League of Women Voters, a nonpartisan political organization, has an established record for fair and informative forums. A trained League moderator from outside the voting area will preside.

The mission of the Statewide Educational Organization Committee, Inc. is to bring together and organize public school parents and community members in low-income cities in New Jersey that have struggling school districts. It works together to identify common problems in the school system and develop and improve educational outcomes for children by organizing public school parents, family members, guardians, youth, and community members to advocate, take action together, and contribute to educational equality.

A diverse group of established and seasoned journalists, writers, filmmakers and notable Asbury Park advocates and civic leaders have come together to form the Asbury Park Media Collective (APMC). The organization is new but the long-standing working relationships among the members, coupled with an impressive collective track record in civic media in Asbury Park and beyond provides a solid foundation for this new initiative.
