Therapeutic Group Homes for Young Adults in New Jersey

Therapeutic Independent Living Assistance For Young Adults New Jersey NJ

What is a group home? A group home is a private residence for children, young adults, adults, or seniors (state-mandated size of 8-16 individuals) who cannot live with their families or are diagnosed with chronic disabilities. Historically, the term "group home" referred to "shelters" housing residents who possess some handicap such as a chronic psychiatric disorder, autism, intellectual disability, physical disability, or even multiple disabilities.


We realize the term group homes are often used today more "loosely" and as a general term for programs for struggling young adults. Although these more "traditional" shelters for disabled young adults exist, likely, this is not the intent of your search endeavors.

Specifically, we are a "transitional independent living" program, designed for ages 18 to 25 who need a safe, supportive learning environment, assisting and supporting the "transition" into adulthood.

Left to their own devices, young adults with mental health problems and disabilities are not equipped to manage the demands of the "real world." Mental health issues don't affect only adults. Children, teens, and young adults may possess mental health dilemmas too.

We know from experience that relocating your child to an out-of-state setting, free from the distractions and influence of unsupportive peers, produces the fastest and greatest improvement.

Over the past few years, there seems to be an epidemic among our young adult generation of an inability to transition into adulthood, and the problem is pervasive and escalating.

Adult life beckons but seems out of their grasp. Experts often call these individuals "Avoiders" because of their seemingly "avoidant behavior."

Common symptoms of this "failure to launch" (and common complaints from families) include the following: Ambiguous life purpose, lack of career focus, unrealistic vocational expectations, lack of energy, low tolerance for stress, and relative indifference to the benefits of money.

Fact: Nearly 60% of adults are furnishing some means of financial support for their adult children although they are no longer in school. Parents usually remain unaware of the fact that their efforts "enable the behaviors seen in their sons and daughters, the fear of their loved ones failing, or living with the consequences of their behavior, only perpetuates this cycle.

While some advocate the group home environment as a solution, we here at Soulegria know our "transitional living" program is the most beneficial solution. Our staff is prepared to teach our students the essential life skills needed for independence and face adult life adversities maturely.

Soulegria's comprehensive, thorough transitional living program guides our students in the capacity for college attendance, holding down a job, and learning to maintain their financial needs and obligations as would any stable, successful adult.
