These services are provided in the least restrictive setting possible to both residents and their families. The primary purpose of the residential program is to re-unite children with their families of origin or help them transition to step-down services, such as foster care in preparation for return home. In cases where there are no family resources or parental rights have been terminated, the continuum of care can include adoption services which allow children to achieve permanency. Youth in placement have moderate to severe emotional, behavioral and/or mental health problems. Multi-disciplinary treatment teams designed the milieu to provide the residents with opportunities to learn and develop skills in the areas of self-esteem, self-control, interpersonal relationships and living skills (daily living, independent living, and leadership skills). Trained youth specialists provide the residents with support and guidance, modeling and coaching and behavioral prevention and interventions that all promote a client-choice based empowerment model to prepare the residents for a successful return to living in a community setting. The program includes behavioral intervention modalities such as Crisis Prevention Intervention (CPI), Aggression Replacement Training (ART), Brain Gym, Yoga and Tai Chi. These services are designed to address trauma issues and allow residents to learn selfsoothing and coping techniques to utilize when they are anxious or overwhelmed. Privileges and activities are commensurate with a child’s age and maturation level. Residents are also eligible to apply for the on campus work program when their behavior has indicated that they are ready for such an experience. They are taught the basics of ground maintenance, but, more importantly, they are taught how to apply for a job, how to behave on the job and the responsibility of managing the money they earn. A certain percentage of monies earned is put into a savings account for each youth to take with him upon discharge. The Redford Union Schools provide general education, special education and day treatment services to most of our residents. In September 2012, the agency joined forces with Dearborn Heights School District #7 to provide a Virtual Academy for high school level students to meet the needs of those students who do not thrive in the traditional classroom setting or for those who have been suspended for a lengthy period of time or expelled. This is a computerbased program which allows the resident to progress at his own pace while earning high school credits. The primary advocate for the child in residential placement regarding school is the Residential Therapist, who is a master’s level therapist. The youth are also guided in their educational success with the use of a daily tutoring program that is provided in each cottage from Monday through Thursday. For five weeks in the summer, every child participates in the Summer Bridges program, focusing on Math, Reading, Computer Lab and Life Skills to maintain their academic achievements from one year to the next. The Foster Care/Adoption Placement Departments provide a broader continuum of services for the children who come to us for residential services.
