PROGRAMS AND SERVICES
Residence
C.Y.P.
provides housing and support for adolescent
(ages 15-18) boys and girls who are unable
to live with a family and unprepared for
independent living.
We
provide safe housing, structure, clear
expectations and support to eight residents
at a time. There is an emphasis on school
achievement and part time paid or volunteer
work experience and life skills training.
Achievements in school and real work
experience are excellent self-esteem
builders and education and training are
essential ingredients for a successful
return home or independence.
Transition support program
The
program provides support to older
adolescents (aged 16+) who are making the
transition from Children’s Services to Adult
Services or are leaving residential programs
to live in the community.
A service
plan prepared by the client and the case
manager will identify the need for
educational or vocational assessment and
training, need for housing and income
support. There will be a commitment on the
part of the client to continue formal
education/training while working part-time
or working full time. |
