Care Plus NJ is proud to announce that President and CEO Brigitte Johnson, Esq., has been named to ROI-NJ’s 2026 Women Influencers in Business, a list recognizing more than 300 leaders whose vision, leadership, and commitment have meaningfully shaped New Jersey’s business and civic landscape.
Under Brigitte’s leadership, Care Plus NJ continues to break down systemic barriers and redefine access to care by advancing integrated behavioral health, substance use, and primary care services across northern New Jersey. As one of the nation’s first Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics (CCBHC), the organization has built a comprehensive, person-centered model of care, further strengthened by the expansion of its open access framework.
This approach ensures same-day, walk-in availability across service lines, streamlines entry points, and significantly reduces wait times, allowing individuals and families to access care at the moment they need it. By prioritizing continuity of care, Care Plus NJ is not only expanding access, but transforming how and when communities receive critical health services.
“It is an honor to be recognized alongside so many remarkable leaders shaping New Jersey’s future,” said Brigitte Johnson, President and CEO of Care Plus NJ. “This recognition reflects the dedication of our entire team at Care Plus NJ, whose work every day removes obstacles to care and ensures that behavioral health services are available to everyone who needs them.”
