Center for Community Systems at New Jersey Institute of Technology


  • About Us

    The mission of the Center for Community Systems is to be a resource and conduit for creating thriving, sustainable, and resilient communities.

    Home of NJIT TAB, New Jersey Brownfields Assistance Center @ NJIT is the first-of-its-kind center that solely focuses on and serves New Jersey’s communities as they strive to transform their former industrial and commercial properties into community assets. This Center educates and engages communities about brownfield issues. It provides free “help desk” assistance and guidance to any NJ county or municipal government challenged with navigating the cleanup and redevelopment processes, and it develops tools and resources for both the public and private sector, including developers, consultants, and other brownfield practitioners.

    We are an organization dedicated to promoting Environmental and Energy Justice, focusing on the development of leadership skills. Our mission is to provide training and technical assistance in grantmaking to grassroots organizations in the Caribbean region, with a focus on Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, as well as New York and New Jersey.

    We support community-based non-profit organizations, municipalities, educational institutions, and religious institutions, among others, in finding solutions to environmental and energy challenges. We offer training workshops and technical services to develop competitive proposals to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Department of Energy.

    Our work is realized through a combination of virtual meetings, workshops, face-to-face meetings and webinars.
