New Jersey Statutes Title 9. Children Juvenile and Domestic Relations Courts 9 § 6-8.55

The court may make an order of protection in assistance or as a condition of any other order made under this act. The order of protection may set forth reasonable conditions of behavior to be observed for a specified time by a person who is before the court and is a parent or guardian responsible for the child's care or the spouse of the parent or guardian, or both. Such an order may require any such person: a. To stay away from the home, the other spouse or the child; b. To permit a parent to visit the child at stated periods; c. To abstain from offensive conduct against the child or against the other parent or against any person to whom custody of the child is awarded; d. To give proper attention to the care of the home; and e. To refrain from acts of commission or omission that tend to make the home not a proper place for the child.

The court may also award custody of the child, during the term of the order of protection to either parent or to an appropriate relative; however, nothing in this section shall be construed to give the court power to place or board out any child or to commit a child to the custody of an institution or agency. In making orders of protection, the court shall so act as to insure that in the care, protection, discipline and guardianship of the child, his religious faith shall be preserved and protected.
