The Open Door of NJ was started at the request of many parents with family members who have special needs and want a structured facility.
The Open Door of NJ opened its first-day program in 2008. However, The Open Door of NJ did not stop there, between 2011 and the early part of 2012 three residential group homes were opened.
The Open Door of NJ is dedicated to continuing to develop further and to provide quality service to those who are in need.
