Calling all young women in New Jersey! I\u2019m currently a participant in the Miss America Opportunity, and we\u2019re looking for candidates for the 2027 Miss Hudson County, Miss Essex County, and Miss Northern Counties competitions!<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Miss America Opportunity is one of the nation\u2019s largest providers of scholarships for women, and participating offers so much beyond the competition. Candidates can earn scholarships, strengthen their interview and public speaking skills, showcase a talent, advocate for a cause they care about, serve their communities, and make connections along the way.<\/p>\n

Candidates for Miss Hudson County and Miss Essex County must meet and be able to document the residency requirements for that specific county. Miss Northern Counties is open to eligible candidates from Essex, Hudson, Union, Passaic, Bergen, Morris, Warren, or Sussex County.<\/p>\n
