Community Resources at our Ridgewood office

The Family Resource Room

Parents, individuals and families are invited to explore the Resource Room’s materials — books, videos, DVDs, and articles — that include information on child development, effective parenting, achieving family balance, managing stress, co-parenting and divorce, enhancing parent-child communication, eating disorders, bullying prevention, care giving to elders, learning disabilities, and numerous other life issues.

This room is also available for use by the community, subject to availability. To reserve a time, please call: (201) 445-7015.

The Healing Garden

A resting place under shaded trees, the sight of beautiful shrubs and flowers, the sounds of song birds, the solitude of walking through a garden path and labyrinth with the sound of a gentle flowing stream guiding the way, the smells of aromatic plants and herbs...Our Healing Garden is a place like no other, designed specifically to help promote healing and wellness of mind, body and spirit. In addition to a labyrinth, the Garden includes shaded seating areas, gazebo, babbling stream, waterfalls and pond, a potting shed and children’s planting garden, a lawn area and a fountain. The Healing Garden provides a tranquil haven for quiet contemplation, reflection and inner replenishment, a place of respite from life’s daily stresses. Please feel free to stop by and enjoy the garden!
