Overview

Mission

Our vision is to share HOPE with the discouraged among us. The mission of WOHRC is to help provide encouragement to families in our community by assisting them explore various ways to enrich their quality of life by offering services like: effective counseling, mentoring and by providing referrals to services we do not offer at our agency. One of the services we provide through our New Life Program is counseling as a state of NJ licensed out-patient drug and alcohol treatment clinic. For this program we can bill insurance companies for the services we provide to the clients. We have another program called Give Hope which helps loved ones learn how to communicate with those suffering from an addiction and direct them towards a sober lifestyle. An additional program is Building Lives Together (BLT). In this program we help clients with job searches, resume writing, developing interviewing skills, housing, local food pantries and other services. Give Hope & BLT we offer as free services.

What it reported doing in 2025

The mission of the New Life Program is to help those struggling with addiction (substance use disorders and gambling), seeking recovery, by offering outpatient addiction treatment and mental health counseling that teaches how to maintain sobriety and have hope for a future that is substance free. Our program is unique because we offer gender specific groups. We also offer specialized counseling that targets self-care. Licensed by the state of New Jersey. Clients have an assessment done to determine their Level of Care. They can be placed in either Intensive Outpatient (IOP) or Outpatient (OP) Level of Care. If a client needs a higher level of care, we refer them to another agency for detox or partial care. After completing the higher level of care the clients are eligible to come for our outpatient services. IOP sessions include at least three 3-hour groups per week and one 60-minute individual per week. OP sessions include two 90-minute groups per week and at least two individual sessions per month. We have a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) on staff does mental health counseling with clients that need this service. We also have an Advanced Practicing Nurse (APN) with a Psych background who does Psychiatric Evaluations and can prescribe medications for mental health conditions based on her evaluation. We bill insurance including Medicaid for these services we offer. If there are uninsured clients, there are some state funded programs that may cover the services they receive.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
