The Support and Action Group of Central New Jersey meets roughly bi-monthly at CentraState. We inform, share, and support each other in this journey. This meeting, our guest speaker will be Jeana Sweeney, Director of Community Services for the Charcot-Marie-Tooth Association. Jeana will share her own fundraising experiences, ideas, the children's cookbook she wrote to benefit the CMTA, and most of all, we will discuss together our CMT AWARENESS NIGHT at the SOMERSET PATRIOTS on July 19th! Tickets available for $10 and t-shirts are available for $10.
