On Thursday, January 22, 2026, our President/CEO, Thomas J. Wilson attended a meeting in Newark, New Jersey. It was the New Jersey LGBTQ+ Law Enforcement Liaison meeting. The meeting was held at the Essex County Sheriff’s Office. Thomas J. Wilson is also a member of the New Jersey LGBTQ+ Law Enforcement Liaison. He has been a Liaison for the last five years. Even though he retired in November 2024, he continues to be active. He retired as a Senior Correctional Police Officer for the New Jersey Department of Corrections at New Jersey State Prison. We would like to formally thank Sheriff Amir D. Jones for his hospitality. He was blessed to meet the New Jersey Attorney General, Jennifer Davenport. He also met the New Jersey Senate Majority Leader, Teresa Ruiz, and Essex County Sheriff Amir D. Jones. Additionally, he met Essex County Executive Joseph N. DiVincenzo Jr.
