About us

Norwescap serves as a foundation of support, offering crucial assistance, effective strategies, necessary resources, and referrals to help individuals and families overcome economic hurdles so they can thrive. By bridging the gap between surviving and thriving, Norwescap enables people to build a stronger, more stable future—despite the pressures of financial constraints. Our goal is to create opportunities that improve individual lives, bolster community resilience, and transform poverty into a springboard for economic empowerment and societal advancement. Norwescap was founded in 1965 during the presidency of Lyndon Johnson and his administration’s efforts referred to as the “War on Poverty,” further fueled by the advocacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Over the next six decades, Norwescap has grown to build a comprehensive foundation of programs and services that, together, positively impact tens of thousands of people each year. Our tailored portfolio of programs and services is designed to address a wide range of unique challenges faced by New Jersey residents, offering access to the essentials for a more secure life—stable housing, nutritious food, healthcare, education, and more.
