Our Story

 

Family Care of New Jersey began in memory of my Aunt Maria. Aunt Maria had a brain aneurysm at 16. She was completely paralyzed and only had use of one hand. She was in the Division of Developmental Disabilities (DDD) system and  attended the 1st Cerebral Palsy Center of Belleville for 54 years.  Maria had a fulfilled life. She lived independently, worked, attended social activities, vacationed and was always surrounded by friends and family. Here at Family Care of New Jersey we believe that with  the right support coordination agency everyone can have a prosperous life. With the many years of experience that our employees have, the team here at Family Care of New Jersey realizes that with the right support and guidance people can  obtain their dreams. Whether it be employment, living situations, community involvement, health goals or so much more. We are fully dedicated to making your dreams and goals a reality. We do this through detailed NJ Person Centered Planning Tool and NJ  Individual Service Plans, designed uniquely to each person, ALWAYS putting your wants and needs first! 


When you join our family, you will become the newest member of a tightly knit group. Our employees will work endlessly to ensure that not only you, but your families as well, identify and help you gain access to the supports you need. There is no such thing as an unobtainable feat or an unreachable dream. When there is a will, there is a way - our job is to find that way.
