Helping Children Thrive: Emotional Support and Family Guidance
Our Children’s Community-Based Services program provides intervention, case work, and mentoring for children dealing with a serious emotional disorder. We also work with the immediate family members of those children, assisting them in providing support through the process, which dramatically increases the child’s ability to live, learn, and participate fully in their environment.
Case Management
The Case Manager works with families to develop goals, assess strengths and needs of youth and teaches youth coping skills and strategies to improve their ability to function successfully in all areas.
Psycho-Social Rehab
Psycho-Social Rehab provides one-on-one coaching for youth to develop and practice coping skills in natural settings. This skill development can also be practiced in a group setting with other youth.
Attendant Care
Attendant Care provides one-on-one support and supervision so youth can be successful in their natural setting.
Children’s Behavior Interventionists
Children’s Behavior Interventionists work in the home where the youth reside with both the youth and their family. These services are intensive and center on both the family and youth to help restore youth’s behaviors while strengthening the whole family unit. The Strengthening Families curriculum is implemented with the family as well as neurostimulation activities and other family coping and communication strategies.
Parent Peer Support
This service is for parents or guardians of youth who have a serious mental illness. Parent Peers are certified to provide support, guidance, and advocacy for parents while using their own shared lived experience with raising youth with a mental illness or substance abuse issue.
