CHARITY NNJR

Our current charity is Cheshire Home, a special care nursing facility with over 40 years of dedication to the spinal cord injury community.  NNJR is excited to help their residents in reaching their goals of independence. 

Cheshire Home’s 35-bed facility is home to young adults living with spinal cord injuries and other neurological impairments as they continue their journey back to an independent lifestyle. They are a true hidden gem located in Florham Park in Morris County. The facility provides all of the services that a resident needs to regain their independence after a tragic accident, offering on-site nursing care, mental and emotional support, physical and occupational therapies, vocational and educational programs, transportation and recreation and so much more.

The staff at Cheshire understands the traumatic experience a resident has faced, and therefore provide the best care possible to help a resident regain their independent lifestyle. Once a patient enters through the doors of Cheshire Home, they are family. 

Since Cheshire Home opened its doors in 1981, they have served over 260 residents and expertly led each one through a rehabilitation process tailored to their individual needs and aspirations. The average residency is about 2-3 years, long enough to become family and develop lasting bonds. The dedicated staff, some of whom have been with Cheshire for over 25 years, work diligently to help every resident succeed in meeting their personal, physical, and mental goals. Whether Cheshire is helping residents learn to cook, acquire new job skills, or learn to feed themselves again, their mission is to provide every resident with the means to reach their maximum level of independence.
