Flynn Christian Fellowship Houses of New Jersey, Inc. (no religious affiliation) was established and incorporated in February of 1961 by a group of individuals concerned for the welfare of alcoholic men with nowhere to go once released from hospitals or other institutions. It was modeled after the Flynn Christian Fellowship sober houses originating in Baltimore some years prior.

In 1963 Flynn House began operations in a second facility located in Jersey City. We are the oldest halfway house in the state of New Jersey still in operation. With facilities in Elizabeth and Jersey City, we can accommodate nearly 70 men daily recovering from the disease of addiction. The Flynn House philosophy is based on the twelve step model of Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous.
