Mission

Inspired by faith, we are a community devoted to absolute respect and unconditional love ensuring that all youth experiencing homelessness can lead lives full of purpose and joy. Covenant House New Jersey (CHNJ) was founded and incorporated in 1989. CHNJ is the largest provider in the state of services to homeless and precariously housed youth under the age of 24. In addition to food, shelter, and clothing, CHNJ provides health care, educational and job readiness training programs, counseling, legal services, mother/child programs, transitional living programs, street outreach, and aftercare. Last year, we reached over 2600 young people. Tonight alone, we will give 299 homeless youth and young families a safe and caring place to sleep. Our Youth Engagement Centers provide our young people with a safe shelter while they stabilize their crises and work on a plan to transition to a stable living environment where they can continue to progress in their life goals.
