About Serv Centers of New Jersey
A $3,000,000 grant in 2024 to Serv Foundation Inc. for the purchase of a future office site is the clearest sign of how Serv Centers of New Jersey Inc. combines program support with organization-building investments. The foundation sits inside a private, not-for-profit behavioral healthcare provider that serves adults and families recovering from serious mental illness or coping with developmental disabilities. Its work centers on a continuum of residential, outpatient, vocational, and supportive housing services designed to help people live and work in the community. That service model is reflected in the foundation’s giving programs, which include unrestricted annual support for SERV programs, funding for major repairs and down payments on group homes, scholarships for consumers pursuing vocational training or higher education, and consumer enrichment grants. The recent grant record also shows a direct commitment to SERV-affiliated infrastructure, not just service delivery. Leadership is listed under Bob Rosvold, and the foundation’s giving is confined to New Jersey recipients.
What Serv Centers of New Jersey Funds
A core theme in the foundation’s grantmaking is behavioral health services. Through the SERV Foundation Annual Fund / Program Support, it provides unrestricted annual support for SERV programs and financial support for innovative programs benefiting SERV consumers and affiliated entities. Another clear focus is supportive housing: the SERV Foundation Properties / Group Home Repair Fund pays for major repairs to supervised group homes and down payments to purchase houses for group homes operated by SERV Properties & Management, Inc. Education and employment supports are also built in. The SERV Foundation Scholarship Fund supports SERV consumers who are pursuing vocational training or higher education after exhausting other sources of funding. For day-to-day quality of life, the Grants Program for Consumer Enrichment funds outings, sporting events, picnics, trips, and similar activities for SERV consumers.
How Serv Centers of New Jersey Gives
The foundation’s typical grant size is fixed at $3,000,000 at the 25th percentile, median, and 75th percentile, indicating a very concentrated grant pattern.
