The Hudson County Chamber of Commerce, founded in 1888, is the county’s premier, business association, promoting economic vitality, quality of life, opportunity, and growth.

The Employers Association of New Jersey is a nonprofit employers association providing education, guidance, and support on employment law compliance and human resource best practices.

Their webinar comes after an ICE raid in the Jersey City Heights on Sunday led to 10 people being detained, according to the federal law enforcement agency, as HCV first reported.
