Housing and Neighborhood Development Services, Inc. or HANDS Inc. is a nonprofit housing group based in Orange, New Jersey. Since 1986, the organization has worked to revitalize residential and commercial properties throughout the tri-state area through foreclosure and negotiations with the owners.
