NJ Advocacy for Vaccination Choice, Informed Consent & Personalized Medical Decisions

Honoring Our Founder. Advancing Her Mission.

For more than 25 years, NJCVC was shaped by the vision, courage, and perseverance of our founder, Susan Collins. Long before advocacy was amplified by social media, Sue built a grassroots community across New Jersey: one conversation, one relationship, and one act of courage at a time.

Sue advocated for vaccination choice, informed consent, and parental rights with respect, determination, and an unwavering belief that individuals must be empowered to make personal medical decisions for themselves and their families. She navigated complex political and regulatory spaces with patience and integrity, earning respect even in the most challenging environments. Her work not only benefited her own children, but inspired thousands of New Jersey residents to stand up for medical freedom.

Though Sue passed away in March of 2024, her legacy continues to guide NJCVC every day. We remain deeply grateful for the foundation she built and the example she set. Her mission did not end with her passing, it lives on through this organization and the community she created.

Over the past year, NJCVC has taken deliberate steps to reflect, reorganize, and strengthen our structure to ensure we remain faithful to Sue’s original mission: empowering people to advocate for themselves.

We are committed to continuing her work with the same principles she modeled:

  • Respectful, fact-based advocacy
  • Nonpartisan engagement
  • Community-driven action
  • Defense of informed consent and individualized medical decision-making

We appreciate your patience and support as we continue to grow and adapt while remaining rooted in these values.

NJCVC is a nonpartisan, grassroots, volunteer-led organization dedicated to promoting vaccination choice, informed consent, and personalized medical decisions in New Jersey. We work to educate, connect, and empower citizens while building constructive relationships within local communities and with elected officials across the state.

Our strength comes from engaged, informed individuals working together, parents, professionals, and concerned citizens, who believe medical decisions should remain personal, not mandated.

NJCVC supports the right of parents and individuals to informed consent and the freedom to decide which medical interventions, if any, they accept for themselves and their families.
