A County-Level Cost Recovery Engine for Fragmented Systems
POP LABS builds county-based civic infrastructure hubs that function as community innovation spaces, where residents, nonprofits, schools, healthcare partners, faith communities, employers, and government agencies collaborate through shared space, coordinated navigation, and a standardized data ecosystem to cultivate dignity, restore trust, and strengthen outcomes across New Jersey.
We work with county leadership to place hubs in priority communities — from visibly high-need neighborhoods to emerging-need towns that are quietly absorbing stress, economic decline, or rising social vulnerability.

Counties are responsible for critical services — but these systems rarely connect.
Workforce development
Public health
Youth and family services
Transportation
Economic development
Emergency response
Housing stability
Community wellbeing
But these systems rarely connect.
You're spending millions on programs without the infrastructure to make them work together.
POP LABS changes that.
What POP LABS Delivers to Counties
Physical Civic Infrastructure
A centralized or co-located hub that brings county agencies, nonprofits, and community organizations into unified space.
Shared Intake & Navigation
Standardized workflows that increase efficiency and reduce duplicated efforts across departments.
Countywide CRM + Trust Index
One system where referrals, outcomes, and resident experiences are captured, measured, and reported.
Governance & Accountability
Structures that blend community voice, county leadership, nonprofit expertise, and transparent metrics.
Placement in Priority Communities
Hubs are located in high-need zones with visible distress AND emerging-need communities that appear stable but show early signs of strain.
You decide the communities. We build the infrastructure.
Site Selection Framework
Counties define the "where." POP LABS builds the "how."
We guide counties through a strategic selection process that examines:
Crisis data
Schools and youth indicators
Nonprofit presence or absence
Transportation access
Economic signals
Community voice
Early-warning metrics
This ensures hubs are placed where they will have the highest structural impact.
Implementation Timeline
Discovery & Alignment
County priorities, listening sessions, data review, and site identification.
Build-Out & Infrastructure
Renovation, design, furniture, technology, and brand integration.
Onboarding & Launch
MOU signing, navigator training, systems setup, community onboarding.
Continuous Improvement
Quarterly Trust Index reports, coaching, and cross-sector alignment.
