About the Center

Located just soutside the capital city of Trenton, the Bonner Center cultivates the common ground that exists between the educational mission of the College and the interests and needs of the local community. It does so by creating teaching and learning opportunities that simultaneously build the capacity of TCNJ students and community organizations in Trenton and the region. In so doing, the Center puts the College's main values into action and strives to foster a more enlightened, participatory and egalitarian society.
