NEW JERSEY TEENS:

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS!

New Jersey has provided a number of legal options for you to fight for your

rights! You may wish to contact legal services (see below) to file an injunction.

Remember, you have civil rights too! See:

If your parents have threatened to or are planning to have you institutionalized in

a lockdown “24-hour secured” facility (including, but, not limited to: residential

treatment programs, behavior modification programs, boot camps, wilderness

camps/programs, etc.), you have options:

FILE AN INJUNCTION:

You can file for injunctive relief. You will need to contact legal aid or the ACLU

for information on filing a petition for injunctive relief. The court may grant a

temporary injunction against your parents sending you to any lock-down facility.

At this point, you will be in a position to request a guardian ad litem or speak to

the attorney of your choosing to act on your behalf. Use the emotional abuse law

below to argue for your freedom. Contact Child Protective Services!
