New Jersey Orators
 The New Jersey Orators, a non-profit organization established over two decades ago, is the voice of New Jersey. Youth from 7 - 18 years of age learn the art of public speaking and effective communication.
About the Organization
New Jersey Orators, Inc. is a non-profit 501 (c) (3) volunteer organization founded in 1985 by a small group of New Jersey African-American corporate executives who set out to improve the language skills primarily of African-American youth, from ages 7 to 18 years, in preparation for roles of leadership and employment.
The prime objectives of the program are
- language mastery in seven categories of public speaking
- enhancement of self-esteem
- assistance in career selection
- engagement of parents in their children's development
Orator training consists of 40 weeks of one-hour meetings coinciding with the school year and participation in statewide competitions. With an annual membership of almost 500 students, there are chapters throughout the State of New Jersey (Burlington/Willingboro is our local chapter). This chapter meets within the District.
The organization has three Critical Success Factors:
- competition performance
- depth and range of knowledge of competition categories
- high school graduation
Students are evaluated by judges, tracked by coaches in their selection and mastery of the categories, and monitored for high school completion.
