The New Jersey Planning Officials, a non-profit 501(c)3 corporation, is the largest and singly most active organization serving members of  municipal Planning Boards and Zoning Boards of Adjustment in New Jersey.  It was founded in 1938 to provide educational programs and information to the average citizen who is selected to serve their community, but are not required to have a background in planning or zoning.
The primary revenue source for NJPO is derived from voluntary dues paid by approximately 700 municipal planning and zoning boards - representing nearly 8,200 citizen planners - as well as, a range of 500 professional planners, attorneys, engineers and architects, corporations and libraries who are dues-paying members of NJPO. All but two of New Jersey’s 21 Counties are dues-paying members.

NJPO was known, from 1964 until 1992, as the New Jersey Federation of Planning Officials; before then, as the NJ Federation of Official Planning Boards.	NJPO enjoys the enormous volunteer participation of many of the state’s most widely acknowledged experts in the field of land use.  They conduct programs, write articles and provide materials without cost to NJPO.
