Our specialized programs focus on managing and shaping behavior through utilizing best practices as well as building on the competencies and strengths of those in our care. This is accomplished through the acquisition of as much knowledge about the individual as possible from previous placements, consultation with appropriate professionals, inclusiveness of all previous caregivers when possible, and our vast experience in regard to the impact of mental health challenges.
