N.J. Ct. R. 5:17-3
Disposition
If it finds that juvenile-family crisis exists, the court shall continue the hearing to determine the appropriate disposition, and shall consider the recommendations submitted by intake services, family members and any other interested parties. The court shall make such disposition as it deems appropriate, including requiring the juvenile, parent, guardian or family member contributing to the crisis to participate in appropriate programs and services consistent with the disposition. If the court, however, concludes that an out-of-home placement is necessary, further proceedings shall be taken pursuant to R. 5:18 insofar as applicable. The court shall state its reasons for any disposition made and in the event of the failure of any person to comply with a dispositional order, it may proceed against such person for the enforcement of litigant's rights.
