In 1918, with the world beginning its recovery from World War I and confronting a global influenza pandemic, leaders of seven N.J. hospitals gathered in Newark to discuss the challenges and changes facing hospitals. A united organization was needed, they agreed, to provide leadership on these common concerns.
That was the genesis of the New Jersey Hospital Association.
