Special Olympics New Jersey (SONJ) receives funding from a variety of sources, each with its own reporting requirements. To fulfill our obligations and ensure continued support, we request data from participating schools in several formats throughout the year. Your timely and accurate reporting is essential to our shared success. Please submit a separate report, survey, and tracker for each school and keep in mind that late, incomplete, and missing reports negatively affect your school’s standing with the UCS grant.
Monthly Reports
- Due Date: 10th of each month (for the previous month)
- Location: The report will be available on this page and in the Monday email around the 1st of each month.
- Requirement: All schools should submit a report each month, even if no Unified activities took place.
- Purpose: These reports track the number of individual athletes and Unified partners who participated, as well as the number of experiences per participant. Each experience is counted separately for each athlete and Unified partner.

The May report is cumulative and reflects the full year. To help you prepare in advance, please review the PDF of the report questions.
UMass Survey
