The New Jersey Chapter of the American Society of Landscape Architects (NJASLA) serves as the New Jersey affiliate of a national organization for landscape architects founded in 1899. Based in Trenton, New Jersey, the chapter operates within the architecture and planning sector and connects New Jersey professionals to a national network that includes over 17,600 members. It provides local services to New Jersey landscape architects, keeping members informed through its website, a monthly newsletter, and email announcements. Each year the NJASLA hosts a three-day annual meeting in Atlantic City featuring seminars, continuing education, and networking, with attendance close to 600 professionals. The chapter’s influence includes legislative work in New Jersey, such as 2008 legislation adopted to increase the effectiveness of landscape architects in providing quality-of-life places and spaces and to encourage equal status with architects, engineers, planners and surveyors within the land-development process.
