NJAMHAA IT Project
The Information Technology Project (IT Project) originally called the Management Information Systems Project (MIS Project) was created as a joint public/private partnership between NJAMHAA and the Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services (DMHAS) in 1984. The IT Project was the only venture of its kind at the time to be initiated by a state division to help non-profits implement the new technology of desktop computers and servers.
As technology continues to adapt, the IT Project is adapting with it. The IT Project offers low-cost solutions that includes consultation, implementation, and maintenance – the Total Managed Solution!
The IT Project employs a staff of highly qualified technical support professionals who can address your technology needs, whether it’s being your “in-house” IT representative or an additional IT engineer and consultant to your IT department. Whatever the challenge, the IT Project can meet it!

Transparency Policy of the IT Project at NJAMHAA
NJAMHAA contracts with the State of New Jersey, Department of Human Services, Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services (DMHAS) for the benefit of all provider organizations that it funds through contracts and fee-for service programs. The contract, known as the NJAMHAA Information Technology (IT) Project, was established in 1984 and over the years, the DMHAS has reached out to NJAMHAA to assist division staff in efficiently implementing special projects. More routinely, they ask questions of the IT Project management in the areas of the effective use of technology and whether needs justify the costs.
The IT Project provides the DMHAS with expert technical consultations, research and reviews of technical funding requests, and performs other services as directed by the state. The DMHAS may engage the IT Project to review providers’ requests to use accrued contract dollars to invest in technology, or seek its expertise to assist with expanded fiscal initiatives, such as reviewing providers’ requests for reimbursement of technology expenses through the Coronavirus Relief Fund. The IT Project neither approves nor denies funding requests submitted to the DMHAS. NJAMHAA’s role is purely technical and consultative in nature.
Membership status with NJAMHAA has no bearing on the work of the IT Project and membership status is never reviewed prior to any technical consultation in partnership with the state. Additionally, an organization does not need to be a member of NJAMHAA to receive services from the IT Project. Every provider funded by the DMHAS is eligible to receive the same services from the IT Project, including free webinars and trainings, brief systems analyses and technical purchasing consultations.
Stronger together. Better outcomes for all.
NJAMHAA is proud to serve as a trusted partner and advocate for agencies and the communities they serve.
