New Jersey Treatment, Counseling & Recovery Support

This directory lists New Jersey behavioral health and recovery resources that may support people on probation, parole, or pretrial release. Options include mental health clinics, substance use treatment, intensive outpatient (IOP), recovery support, and court-connected services. Your officer and the court decide which programs meet your treatment conditions. Never stop, switch, or miss required groups or UA tests without talking to your officer or provider.

Safety & emergency reminder: This page is not a crisis line. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 911. For mental health or suicidal crisis support in the U.S., you can call or text 988. Always follow the instructions on your judgment and sentence, supervision plan, and any treatment contract you sign.
