The first Women's March on New Jersey attracted about 7,500 marchers to Trenton the day after President Donald Trump's inauguration.

About 15,000 people packed Morristown Green in January for the 2018 Women's March on New Jersey.

Now, organizers are planning to march for a third time.

The 2019 Women's March on New Jersey will be held in Trenton on Jan. 19, organizers have announced.

The 11 a.m. march will begin at the State House Annex on West State Street and conclude on the steps of the War Memorial around 1 p.m., the announcement said. More details, including speakers and the event's mission statement, will be announced later.

"The organizers of the Women's March on New Jersey want women, here in our state, to rally together for something, not demonstrate against something," organizers said.

The New Jersey march is expected to be one of dozens of similar women's marches held around the country Jan. 19.

The largest event is expected to be the Women's March on Washington, which is being organized by the national women's march organization. Sister marches will be held in cities around the nation, including large marches in New York and Philadelphia.

The women's march movement began in 2016 as a way to send a message about women's rights and other issues after the election of President Trump. The first Women's March on Washington in January 2017, along with its sister marches around the world, attracted surprisingly large crowds and became the largest mass-protest event in the nation's history.

The marches spawned a national movement and non-profit fundraising group.

The Women's March on New Jersey is not associated with the national Women's March, Inc. organization and is not accepting any financial help from the national group for the march in Trenton, organizers said.

"We are coming together on the day of the national women's march, because we believe in the power of diverse, fierce, and compassionate women standing together in solidarity at the same time. We believe the women's march is not a brand, but, rather a powerful movement that should be inclusive, accepting and supportive of all women," the New Jersey organizers said.

In January, Gov. Phil Murphy and first lady Tammy Murphy were among the speakers at the Women's March in Morristown. Tammy Murphy used her speech at the event to reveal she had been sexually assaulted in college.

This year's New Jersey march is being organized by a steering committee with more than 50 members, organizers said.

"Our members represent issues ranging from the environment, voting rights, immigration, and gun control to Black Lives Matter, healthcare, sexual assault, criminal justice reform, education, LGBTQ rights, and more," organizers said.

Though the event is free and tickets are not required, there is an event page where marchers can register to attend and get more information.
