PARENTS SUPPORT GROUP-NEW JERSEY INC. helps mothers and fathers to understand and cope with the disease of addiction.

As a nonprofit foundation we sponsor self-help groups based on Twelve Steps, however we are no affiliated with any other twelve-step program.

We believe that addiction is an illness and that changed attitudes and responses by the parents can greatly help a child’s recovery.

Our mothers and fathers refer to their sons and daughters as children, even thought they range in age from 18 to 40+.

Each support group has a team of two facilitators who are trained to ensure that meetings deal with appropriate subject matter and that everyone has a chance to participate.

Guest speakers attend our meetings on a regular basis. They include counselors from well known rehabilitation facilities and prominent authorities in the field of addiction.

Absolute confidentiality is practiced by the staff and required of all parents.

There are no financial charges to parents attending our meetings.

We are not associated with any organization, institution, political party, sect or denomination. We have no position on any causes nor do we engage in any controversy.

THE ARLENE SHEVELL SCHOLARSHIP ENDOWMENT FUND
The purpose of the fund is to make scholarship funds available to chemical dependency programs. These will include rehabilitation centers, long term care, secondary residential facilities as well as after care and out patient programs.
