Mission: To promote the healthy development of youth and families
Programs: 700 families were admitted/received services through family place. The services included assessment, counseling (individual, family, group, crisis) and case management supervised by licensed social work and mental health professionals. Services were designed to be short term (average of 12 sessions) interventions to provide stabilization and support to families in order to prevent abuse and juvenile delinquency. There were 448 admissions to the shelter in fy 2016-2017. Youth who were homeless, runaways, victims of abuse/neglect, or otherwise at-risk were provided crisis intervention and short-term residential care. Additional shelter services included assessment, case management, counseling, and after-care planning. Because clients lived in the shelter for a brief period of time, they received food, transportation, hygiene supplies and assistance with other basic needs. Counseling services are provided by master's level counselors, who are supervised by licensed clinicians. 96% of youth served through the shelter were discharged to live with their family or another appropriate living situation (approved by parent or guardian).
