School Bio

In 100+ years we have transformed the lives of 12,500 boys and families, and by the year 2025, we want to change the lives of 2,000 more boys and families in crisis. We take youth from crisis to success by providing the most comprehensive care for historically under-served youth and their families in New Jersey. Our extraordinary school and therapeutic residential community serves boys, ages 12 – 21. A fully-accredited and nationally-recognized residential treatment center, Bonnie Brae provides a safe place for boys to heal, to learn and to grow. Nearly all boys who come to Bonnie Brae have suffered abuse, trauma or neglect. Many have significant addiction, mental health, learning and behavior challenges. Treatment begins with forming positive relationships between traumatized children and caring, knowledgeable staff.
