Green
Residential Community Home is located in rural Passaic
County on the grounds of Ringwood State Park. It is
a residential facility for younger male juvenile offenders
between the ages of 13-16. The center serves a maximum
of 28 residents. |

The
program's goal is to provide a safe, secure, and structured
environment where program participants can learn to
modify their behaviors and reactions. The staff, acting
as role models, instill a sense of espirit de corps,
teach realistic goal setting and promote responsible
decision making. The residents learn to adapt to change,
accept accountability and develop self-discipline. |

Through
a contract with the Playwright's Theater of New Jersey,
residents are instructed in the writing and performance
of one-act plays. Performances take place at the Playwright's
Theater in Madison, New Jersey. |

In
addition, residents perform daily community service
work on the grounds of Ringwood State Park and Ringwood
Manor. The young men of Green RCH also provide assistance
to the municipal government, ambulance corps, fire department,
a local battered women's shelter and maintain one of
the town's main roads through the Adopt-A-Road Program.
