NewBridge brings balance to people’s lives through
counseling, housing and education.
NewBridge will be valued by the community
as the preferred trusted partner in strengthening
individual and family lives.
Counseling Services
We’re all human, and when life offers up the kind of obstacles or setbacks that make us behave like we’re not ourselves, we can feel most alone. Anxiety, depression, stress, and uncontrolled anger are more than just “everyday” problems, and when left unaddressed can cause lasting harm to ourselves and people around us.
Addiction Services
When you take that first step to connect with the NewBridge network, you’ll work with our professional staff toward a common goal: a healthier, happier life. We offer a comprehensive program for the treatment of substance abuse and addictions — including evaluation, psycho-educational groups, counseling and referrals.
Youth Services
NewBridge offers a variety of life-enriching educational and counseling programs for preschool-aged children through young adults that empower them to make the right decisions in life, in areas such as: resolving conflict, developing life skills, stress management, healthy living, career counseling, and State of New Jersey High School Diploma preparation and job placement.
“NewBridge Services, Inc. has been bringing balance to people’s lives since 1963. The community nonprofit serves more than 8,000 children, adults and seniors a year through counseling, housing, and education. “

Sage lived with her father since her parents’ divorce when she was 3, and at age 14 had been happy to move across the country with him to pursue acting and writing in Los Angeles. Their life, however, was far from a California dream: they relocated frequently and suddenly. Sage dropped out of high school, and fabricated stories to hide embarrassment over her circumstances.
At age 18, Sage returned to New Jersey. Her mother urged her to enroll in NewBridge Jobs Plus, NewBridge Services’ alternative education and career program. “I’d been out of school so long, I thought, ‘I can’t do that,’ but the people at NewBridge taught me I could!” she said.
