NRH caters to adolescents, pregnant women and families whose lives are affected by substance abuse.[1] NRH was founded in 1975 as a state-approved, privately-funded,[2] residential drug treatment community in Newark, New Jersey.[3] In the years since its founding, NRH has added capacity and services, expanding its facilities and its offerings to include residential substance abuse treatment for adolescent boys, for pregnant women, and for mothers with small children, drug abuse prevention training for at-risk children and teenagers, day treatment for adolescent girls and boys, and outpatient care for individuals and families.[4] Although it remains in the same geographic location as it always has been, NRH has grown over the years from one to three operational buildings.[5]
