Voorhees Residential Community Home is located in Hunterdon County and serves a maximum of 28 residents. The youth at Voorhees RCH range in age from 15 to 18 years.

In addition to classroom studies, the center provides vocational opportunities including carpentry, greenhouse management, landscaping, plumbing, and masonry.

The students at Voorhees Residential participate in various activities within the community. The students routinely assist the Borough of High Bridge, Deer Path YMCA and Camp Carr. Most of the tasks involve utilizing the landscaping and carpentry skills that students learn through their vocational assignments.

The program's Pre-Apprentice Program allows 12 selected students to learn carpentry skills through hands on education that is supported by traditional classroom assignments. The program is a cooperative effort between the Juvenile Justice Commission, the Department of Environmental Protection and the Department of Education and includes various projects within State Parks. Juveniles are currently renovating the outdoor amphitheater at Washington's Crossing State Park. Students who complete the program are encouraged to enter a vocational school or seek employment in the construction field.
