Our program is set up to teach hard and soft skills to youth preparing to live independently. Following a Casey Life Skills Assessment, individual service plans are developed by our Life Coaches for all residents. The process begins at the time of referral and is continually updated throughout the client’s treatment. Upon entry to the program, the Life Coach will develop age-appropriate, short and long-term goals, community supports, and plan of care are developed with the youth guiding the process based on their individual desires and needs. The plan is used as an outline and details the youth’s goals and strategies, as well as addresses a plan for family involvement or partnering with an adult mentor for support.
Each resident participates in an individualized independent living curriculum focused on instruction, positive therapeutic mediations, and real-life experiences. With Life Coach facilitation, clients work on developing pro-social, anger management, and conflict resolution skills. Additionally, the Life Coach will facilitate clients learning basic skills such as cooking, cleaning, doing laundry, as well as key independent living skills, such as completing job applications, interviewing skills, maintaining employment, money and time management, utilizing public transportation, and meeting housing needs. Clients also have access to treatment support and prevention services.
