In 2023, the New Jersey Department of Children and Families unveiled a comprehensive statewide initiative dedicated to fortifying youth wellness and advancing preventative measures. The NJ Statewide Student Support Services (NJ4S) model, consisting of 15 regional hubs, was introduced to facilitate the widespread delivery of prevention services across schools and various community locations throughout the state.

The Passaic County Hub of NJ4S, managed by NJCDC, provides evidence-based Tier 1, 2, and 3 prevention and intervention services to students ranging from K-12. These services encompass workshops, presentations, assemblies, and individual/group sessions addressing a spectrum of topics, including mindful parenting, study skills, habits, and internet and social media safety, among others.

As of March 2025, the NJ4S Passaic County Hub has reached 88% of all Passaic County schools, which includes facilitating over 915 Tier 1 Workshops to reach over 52,000 participants and delivering over 180 Tier 2 and 3 Services to reach over 2,700 participants.
