Information: Hi. I'm Maurice Brown, Director of Public Policy and Corporate Responsibility, for Verizon New Jersey. I am responsible for Verizon's philanthropic and community outreach efforts in Atlantic, Cape May, Cumberland, Essex, Middlesex, Monmouth, Morris, Ocean, Somerset and Union counties.

I began my career at New Jersey Bell in 1971 as a frame attendant. Previous job responsibilities include training as an employment interviewer and recruiter, an EEO investigator, an assistant manager in Network Operations and an engineer.

I am a former President of the Consortium of Information and Telecommunication Executives, Inc. (CITE) of Verizon and former President of the Council of Action for Minority Professionals of Verizon-New Jersey. As an executive member of the New Brunswick Branch of the NAACP, I served as Second Vice President of the NJ NAACP State Conference of Branches during 1998 through 1999. I am a Commissioner for the Montclair Civil Rights Commission and serve on both the Essex County Workforce Investment Board and the Newark Workforce Investment Board.

I hold the distinguished honor of being appointed to the Office of Attorney Ethics in Essex County, for the Supreme Court of New Jersey. I serve on the boards for the 200 Club of Essex County; the Urban League of Essex County; and the Essex County College Community Foundation Board. I am also on the board for the Essex County Chamber of Commerce and was a founding member of the New Jersey Black Chamber of Commerce.

I have been named as one of New Jersey's "100 Most Influential" in the urban community and have been honored for my work in the community by many organizations, including the Black Minister's Council, the NAACP and the National Society of Black Engineers.

As a graduate of Newark College of Engineering, now known as New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT), I majored in Electrical Engineering. In 1970, I founded the Black Association of Student Engineers located at NJIT. I am a 2001 graduate of Leadership NJ and I have completed advance management programs at the Wharton School of Business and Boston College.

I would be happy to talk to you about Verizon programs such as Thinkfinity and Internet Safety that are helping to make a difference in New Jersey.
