WHAT IS THE DIVERSITY COALITION OF MORRIS COUNTY?
We are a non-political coalition of faith-based community organizations and individuals who live, work, and serve in the greater Morris County area. We share the common belief that all people should be treated with dignity, respect, and understanding.
We were blessed with sunny weather and good company on Saturday, May 16 as we walked past wildflowers, through the beautiful meadows and wooded areas, listening to the sounds of birds, headed north and then south, finally finding our way from Bamboo Brook to Willowwood Arboretum and back. A total of 18 hikers covered about 2.9 miles, so it was a great workout, tool! Many new faces joined us, and joyful conversations continued all along the way. We hope you will join us for our next hike scheduled for Sat June 20th at 10am. (See details below)
Summer 2026: Join us Saturday, June 20th at 10:00am
Our next group hike will be around the Elizabeth Kay Environmental Center 200 Pottersville Road Chester, NJ 07930, via Patriot's Path Blue Spur trail. This beautiful route connects both historic sites and offers views of waterfalls and local ruins.
Diversity Day Celebration is scheduled for June 7, 2026
Building Community. Bridging Divides.
Join us for the popular Diversity Celebration on the Morristown Green!
Diversity Celebration is a community event sponsored by the Diversity Coalition of Morris County that brings together friends and members of the Greater Morris County Area in order to celebrate the gifts of our neighbors. Our aim is to bring people together, safely to celebrate diversity and obtain information that could help create better understanding about new cultures among all in attendance. The success of this event has been credited largely to the various religious, cultural, and educational organizations and community members who contribute their time and financial support to the event.
NOTE: In the event of inclement weather, our rain location for this year’s Diversity Celebration
will be at:
The Presbyterian Church Parish House
Address: 65 South St, Morristown
Thank You to our Diversity Celebration Sponsors!
