Covenant House New Jersey (CHNJ) provides sanctuary and support for youth ages 18-21 facing homelessness or human trafficking. We have six locations across the state: Atlantic City, Newark, Camden, Asbury Park, and specialized care in Montclair and Elizabeth. All services are free.
Our Programs
Young people facing homelessness in Asbury Park can access CHNJ’s emergency care through our street outreach program and drop-in center. Asbury Park is also home to our transitional housing program, Rights of Passage, for youth who are ready to take the step toward independent living. In ROP, youth work, save money, and learn to live on their own.
