Partners for Women and Justice was founded in 2002 by attorneys Grace M. Lozito and Jane M. Hanson and has since provided a variety of free, quality services to underserved women, exclusively in the areas of domestic violence and family law. Since its founding, Partners has helped more than a thousand women by offering technical and procedural advice, legal advice and counsel, pro bono legal representation and referrals. 

Financial support for our programs comes from individuals, law firms, corporations, the State of New Jersey, non-governmental funding agencies (United Ways,  the IOLTA Fund of the Bar of New Jersey, The Hyde & Watson Foundation, The Mont clair Foundation, Montclair Fund for Women, Jewish Women’s Foundation of New Jersey), and several family foundations (The Nicholson Foundation, Trust Under the Will of E. Franklin Robbins and Anonymous).
