Adult & Teen Challenge New England and New Jersey, New Jersey Women’s Home, is a long-term, faith-based residential addiction recovery program for adult women located on an 88-acre campus in Lebanon. It offers an extended live-in setting where recovery work, spiritual growth, community living and practical routines are integrated over a 10 to 12 month pathway designed to help women address deep-seated patterns of substance use and rebuild stability in life, relationships and roles beyond addiction.
A Structured Residential Pathway Grounded in Community and Faith
Women enter this residential setting when repeated attempts to manage or stop substance use on their own haven’t held and the impact shows up in daily life, such as work, relationships or wellbeing. The environment is built to support spiritual, emotional and physical growth through scheduled recovery-oriented activities, mentorship, peer support and routines that help participants build healthier habits and accountability within a consistent, live-in community.
Daily Life, Work and Responsibility Within Recovery
Life at the New Jersey Women’s Home blends structured recovery work, including group and personal reflection, Biblical teaching, community responsibilities like gardening and experiential learning opportunities, with everyday living. This approach helps participants translate insights from recovery into practical skills and routines they can carry forward into life outside the program.
Part of a Broader Continuum of Faith-Anchored Care
This center is one of multiple long-term residential homes operated by Teen Challenge New England & New Jersey, a nonprofit with over six decades of experience helping people overcome addiction through extended, immersive programs rooted in community and spiritual support.
A Residential Option for Deep, Sustained Transformation
The New Jersey Women’s Home appeals to women ready for a prolonged, immersive recovery experience that connects daily life, personal growth and spiritual grounding rather than brief clinical care, helping them cultivate stability, coping skills and a sense of purpose that endures beyond the program.
