Mary Pat Angelini (born December 8, 1954) is an American Republican Party politician, who has served in the New Jersey General Assembly since January 8, 2008, where she represents the 11th legislative district.
Angelini serves in the Assembly on the Human Services Committee and the Health and Senior Services Committee.[1]
Angelini graduated with a B.S.W. from East Tennessee State University and an M.P.A. from Fairleigh Dickinson University. She has served as Executive Director of Prevention First since 1992, which provides educational programs and services to schools, businesses, and community organizations to counter the negative effects of drug abuse and violence.[2] Angelini is a resident of Ocean Township, Monmouth County, New Jersey.
The Assemblywoman has sponsored legislation to establish an Anti-Bullying Bill of Rights in the State of New Jersey.[3] The bill was signed by New Jersey Gov.
