  • Delivering Access, Advocacy & Connections Within Our Community

    The week of August 3rd though 9th is National Health Center Week, which gives us the opportunity to note a very important aspect of what we do here at CSN: improving quality of life, removing barriers to essential services, and ensuring that every person is treated with dignity and respect.

    Because this is such a central part of what we do, we felt it worthwhile to publish a post about this topic on LinkedIn, please be sure to have a look! In that post we explain how our company and team members connect our clients with the world of healthcare as part of our service portfolio, even though we are not formally a healthcare company. Rather, our services are complementary to medical care facilities, as we are a DDD-approved provider of support for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

    Apart from what we published in that post, the importance of access to quality care of any type, such as individual supports, behavioral counseling, bringing clients to medical appointments, and much more, is something that we recognize as key part of our mission at CSN. Our Direct Support Professionals and management team members take this to heart in everything that we do, and our clients love our 100-percent engagement on this!

  • Our New Website Design Is Live!

    I am pleased to announce that our website is now running on a shiny new server platform! Not only that, we revamped the design in many other ways while retaining the look and feel of the older version of this website. Along the way we also updated some artwork and photos to give our site a refreshed look. We hope that you will enjoy it!

    In the long run this major change will enable us to enhance the services we offer to our community, clients, and our partners throughout our service area across New Jersey. We are excited to be able to embark on a new journey with you, our audience, in delivering up-to-date information, helpful resources, upcoming events, and much more!

    Please be sure to bookmark our site and visit back often to stay on top of what we are doing. Thank you for your time, we are looking forward to serving your needs in the coming days, months, and years as we grow our services for adults with special needs as well as their families and loved ones!
