Good News Home for Women

Description

Good News Home is a non-profit, faith-based residential treatment center for women struggling with substance abuse and co-occurring disorders. It was founded in 1983 by the late Grace Tracy Ginsburg, who herself was in recovery from addiction to alcohol and substance abuse. Her vision was to create a residential substance abuse treatment program that focused on healing the whole woman. The Home was licensed by the State of New Jersey in 1987 and started with a capacity to accommodate six women, which gradually increased to nine and then to twelve. In 2023, the program expanded to include a "Mommy and Me" component for mothers and their children caught in the throes of domestic violence, and a sober living "The Butterfly House" for residents who complete their residential treatment but are not yet ready for total independent living.
