We support our National mission to ensure the political, educational, social, and economic equality

Today, we proudly celebrate 84 years of service, advocacy, and impact.

Since June 8, 1942, the Bergen County Branch of the NAACP has stood at the forefront of the fight for justice, equity, and opportunity. Through every challenge, every victory, and every generation, our mission has remained clear: to advance civil rights and strengthen our communities.

For 84 years, we have organized, educated, advocated, mentored, registered voters, empowered youth, and answered the call to serve.

As we honor our legacy, we also celebrate the countless members, volunteers, community partners, and leaders whose dedication continues to move this work forward each and every day.

The work continues. The mission endures. The impact grows.

Happy 84th Anniversary, Bergen County NAACP Branch. 💙💛

Our Voice. Our Power. Our Legacy.

What a beautiful day of fellowship, faith, and community at Family & Friends Day with First Baptist Church of Englewood! 💛

We were honored to serve as a community sponsor for such a meaningful event and truly enjoyed connecting, celebrating, and sharing in the joy with so many wonderful families and friends. In times like these, the power of community, togetherness, and uplifting one another is more important than ever. Events like this remind us that when we come together in faith and fellowship, we build stronger, healthier, and more connected communities.

A special thank you to Pastor Donna Owusu-Ansah for the wonderful word and kind invitation. Your message was truly uplifting and inspiring! 🙌✨
