School Overview
**Ocean RGC** (often referred to as the **Ocean Residential Group Home**) is a specialized educational and residential facility located at 1 Game Farm Road in Forked River, New Jersey. Situated within a tranquil, wooded setting, the facility operates under the oversight of the New Jersey Department of Children and Families.
