Our Story

Back in 1989 we started by offering support to youth experiencing homelessness. Today, our organization has grown into a safe space that creates individualized programs for young people facing homelessness and human trafficking survivors.

Our goal is to provide high quality services to as many young people as possible, and offer them a chance to start a new chapter in their lives.

I'm so grateful for CHNJ for all their support and guidance. May God continue to bless the staff and volunteers who are working daily to assist youths like myself. Thanks to them, my journey has taken an unexpected twist for the better.”
