Booker. “The We Are One New Jersey center will provide much-needed guidance and assistance to immigrants who are navigating what can be a complicated process to achieving citizenship. Naturalized citizens are able to engage fully in government, allowing them to build stronger communities where there voice can be officially heard.” The We Are One New Jersey Hudson County Center provides U.S citizenship application assistance, preparatory classes for the citizenship test, voter registration and a deeper understanding of workplace rights.
