Covenant House New Jersey (CHNJ) provides sanctuary and support for youth ages 18-21 facing homelessness or human trafficking. We have seven locations across the state: Atlantic City, Newark, Jersey City, Camden, and Asbury Park, and specialized care in Montclair and Elizabeth. Across all our New Jersey sites all our services are free.
Our Programs
At CHNJ’s Montclair-based program, Nancy’s House, young people with special mental health needs who are facing homelessness can get the attention they require. At Nancy’s House, we help youth acquire the skills they need to be able to thrive on their own. We also run a supportive apartment-living program in Montclair for youth who have developed the maturity and skill to live independently with minimal supervision.
