Since 1988, HABcore has provided “Stability, Dignity and Hope for the Homeless” by providing permanent and transitional supportive housing in a family setting to low-income persons. HABcore has programs for families, veterans, and individuals with special needs, focusing on people who are homeless or in danger of becoming homeless, disabled or unable to care for themselves, affording them lives of dignity and meaning. The primary goal of the organization is to promote self-sufficiency in a structured, family like atmosphere, so that we furnish our residents with the tools to reach their highest level of independent living. HABcore is guided by an all-volunteer board and employs 19 people who provide general administration, 24-hour supervision in our boarding homes and case management services to our independent living sites.
Mission Statement: HABcore, Inc. is a not-for-profit corporation serving Monmouth and adjacent counties in New Jersey. HABcore is devoted to providing permanent and transitional supportive housing in a family setting to low-income persons who are homeless, disabled or unable to care for themselves and to affording them lives of dignity and meaning.
