Joining the Junior League of Monmouth County (JLMC) offers a unique pathway to hands-on nonprofit leadership and skill development. Our members dive into committee work, gaining practical experience in operating our nonprofit from the inside out. Whether you’re interested in fund development, marketing, or directing our community impact initiatives—like the Period Project—there are ample opportunities to lead and learn. Members can spearhead committees, gaining invaluable leadership skills, and seasoned members may advance to governance roles on our board. At JLMC, we are committed to cultivating a robust volunteer experience that equips our members with the expertise to plan, implement, and lead with confidence and impact.

Provisional Membership

Embark on your JLMC journey through our comprehensive New Member training program, encompassing 9 weekly meetings. These sessions, culminating in full membership activation in December or June, are designed to equip you with the knowledge and tools for Active Membership.

As a new member, you’ll discover the breadth of opportunities JLMC offers, understand the impact of our work, and connect with the benefits of being part of an organization that’s making a real difference.

Active Membership

Active JLMC membership entails monthly General Membership Meetings and committee meetings, each lasting about 2 hours. In addition to these essential gatherings, members contribute further through ongoing committee tasks, fundraising efforts, and community volunteering.

The average time commitment is 6-10 hours per month, as members actively support and advance the League’s work within the community.

Sustainer Membership

Sustaining Members have dedicated seven or more years to active service in the Junior League. While they retain all privileges of membership except voting, Sustainers are welcome at all League activities and encouraged to participate in special programs designed to engage our Sustainer network.

Although not obligated to attend regular meetings or perform service, Sustainers in good standing are responsible for annual dues and are highly valued for their ongoing support.

JLMC offers many rewarding volunteer opportunities. Volunteers can dedicate their time to community outreach, education and mentoring experiences, or fundraising and other support areas to increase the impact in our community.

Joining the JLMC provides opportunities for volunteers to impact their community in a meaningful way, to benefit from training in a variety of educational and leadership programs, and foster life-long friendships and professional relationships with fellow volunteers and members of the community in which they serve.

Our members are career women, working mothers, stay-at-home moms, and full-time and part-time volunteers of all ages. We represent a variety of races, religions, and ethnic origins, all committed to making difference in our community.

Membership is open to any woman, age 21 or over
