MISSION

Our program focuses mainly on behavior management (as it relates to adjusting inappropriate behavior), appropriate problem and conflict resolution and inter-personal and relationship skills development through the provision of therapeutic counseling services designed to address prior abuses, neglect or present disorders that fuel the improper behavior and maladjusted attitudes towards others. Our behavior management program is designed to encourage residents to rise above their circumstances, realize their strengths and demonstrate that they can be productive members of the community and successful in life.

Our approach is structured so that residents will come away from our program with the following skills:

• The ability to make productive life choices based upon sound logic and acting, or reacting, in a way that is appropriate to the situation;
• The ability to formulate long and short term goals and the skills to develop a plan to achieve those goals;
• The ability to foster healthy, productive relationships on all levels be they with peers, authority figures, family members, etc.;
• The ability to behave appropriately with regard to their age, social development and respective of the situations and environments wherein they currently or will potentially traverse.
