Neighborhood Assistance Program

 

Neighborhood Assistance Program

Our Neighborhood Assistance Program (NAP) is designed to prevent, respond to, and prepare for future waves of coronavirus in populations of abused/neglected children and their families.  This program is a direct response to the COVID19 pandemic and the consequential socio-economic impact on children, especially infants, and families in our county.

Through NAP, we work in partnership with the Department of Child Protection and Permanency to have a lasting positive impact, with a focus on health and safety, for the most vulnerable populations in our community.

To be eligible, families must have an open case in Passaic County with the Division of Child Protection and Permanency (DCPP) and/or an active case with Passaic County CASA/New Jersey Safe Babies Court Team.

Who is Eligible?

Families who have a current, active case with the Passaic County or Union County Division of Child Protection and Permanency (DCPP) or an active case with the New Jersey Safe Babies Court Team.

Available Items:

  • Diapers, Pull-Ups, and Wipes (size availability varies based on demand)
