NJSFDA Unveils New App for Association Members

NJSFDA Unveils New App for Association Members

New Jersey State Funeral Directors Association members can now take advantage of the association’s latest technological development–a mobile app that will eventually host many of your favorite features from the NJSFDA website.

Initially, the app will be used for voting electronically in the 2025 NJSFDA election for two delegate-at-large seats on the association’s Board of Directors. That election will take place in July. Between now and the conclusion of the election, news and features concerning the candidates and voting will be housed on the app.

Push alerts can be enabled as well, which will give members immediate access to news such as potential outages in vital tools for funeral directors like the Electronic Death Registration System.

The app is now available for download in Apple’s App Store and on Google Play.

The NJSFDA election will begin July 14 and end at 3:00 p.m. on July 28. Information on the candidates will be coming shortly.

What members need to do now is:

  1. Download the NJSFDA app by searching “NJSFDA” in the App Store or Google Play
  2. Log in using your NJSFDA website credentials. If you need assistance with logging in, call Membership Services at 800.734.3712

The NJSFDA is committed to technological investments for the benefit and convenience of our members. Stay tuned for information regarding more features that will be added to the app, making it an indispensable tool for your funeral service needs.
