Phase 1 of The Retreat & Recovery at Ramapo Valley for Hackensack Meridian Health | Carrier Clinicopened in New Jersey, after being built and constructed during the height of the pandemic. The design is a state-of-the art treatment
center in Mahwah set within a serene, historic landscape in North Jersey. The project expands access to addiction
treatment and behavioral health services on the campus of a former religious
retreat in Mahwah. 
“The meticulous craftsmanship that was needed to maintain its charm while updating the 110-year-old facility that now serves as the Retreat & Recovery at Ramapo Valley took nearly two years to complete” during
the COVID-19 pandemic, wrote Tom Bergeron in ROI-NJ.
“And the landscape around the facility — a serene, wooded setting in Mahwah
that offers the type of atmosphere that is needed for the state-of-the art
addiction treatment center Hackensack Meridian Health unveiled Wednesday
morning — takes you back to a simpler time.
If you think the idyllic setting means treatment will be based on techniques from days gone by, think again: The specialists at the Retreat & Recovery at Ramapo Valley will be helping people in the ever-growing demands for behavioral health with modern-day technologies.”

Some of the technologies include virtual reality therapy, telehealth, facial recognition, and apps for self-help.
“The Retreat & Recovery at Ramapo Valley arrives at a critical time for our state,”
said Robert C. Garrett, CEO of Hackensack Meridian Health. “We know that more people are struggling with mental health issues and addiction. In fact, it is a pandemic within the COVID-19 pandemic, and we are here to help.’
