by your side – navigating through struggle into strength
Empowering Youth and Families
Comprehensive services that empower parents and youth to realize their values and goals in order to create engaged, meaningful, and satisfying lives together. Empowerment grows through skill building, finding nurturing environments, challenging ableism, and cultivating self-knowledge, self-determination, and self-advocacy for both parents and their teens and young adults.
Intensive and Family-Centered
Your family is at the center of our approach. We listen, understand, and work together to achieve the best outcomes for the whole family. We provide parents with interventions and supports so they can restore and reclaim their own energy and sense of self and balance the needs of their whole family.
Whole Person/Whole Community Approach
We look beyond diagnostic labels and testing numbers to gain an understanding of who your child/young adult really is and how they fit in your family, in their school or work and in their community. It is at that point that we begin our work together to collaboratively develop intervention plans and solutions.
Collaborative Educational Alliance
The family, school team and providers working together in a collaborative alliance creates the best outcome for kids. Every member at the table has valuable input when developing a child/young adult educational plan whether it is a public school, private day school, therapeutic boarding school or college. Our providers seek to optimize the team process in order to identify, develop and implement the most effective educational programs for students.
MISSION
to provide intensive wraparound services that build an alliance between parents and their struggling youth with the people in their support network to build a personalized pathway through challenges into a life of connection, engagement, meaning, and productivity.
