Youth Clinical & Family Support Programs
Behavioral Health Homes
Woodfords’ Behavioral Health Homes Program is designed to provide support to children and youth with intellectual and developmental disabilities and/or mental health diagnoses and their families. Coordinators link children and their parents to resources and services in their own communities. Services can range from informational to intensive, defined by the amount of support and intervention a parent and/or child requests.
Home & Community Treatment
Woodfords’ Home & Community Treatment (HCT) Program serves children with disabilities and/or mental health diagnoses who experience significant challenges in home, school, and community settings. The HCT Program embraces the concept of individual and family-centered planning and treatment, recognizing that all children and families have strengths that can help them get through difficult times. Trained staff work with families to use these strengths to implement plans for lasting change.
Pathways to Transition Parent & Caregiver Support Program
Woodfords’ Pathways to Transition Parent & Caregiver Support Group is a quarterly community building group that focuses on the common challenges experienced by parents and caregivers related to the transition to and navigation of early adulthood for older youth with disabilities. This group offers support to a community of caregivers so that they are able to discuss shared experiences, solve problems, and learn about services and transition related resources.
Rehabilitative & Community Support Program
Woodfords’ Rehabilitative & Community Support (RCS) Program provides one-on-one support to children with intellectual and developmental disabilities so that they may become active participants in both family and community life. A Behavioral Health Professional (BHP) works with the child in their home and/or community on specific goals to increase their skills in behavior management, communication, independent living, self-care, self-help and socialization. The RCS Program also offers specialized services for children in need of more intensive treatment.
Sibshops: Sibling Support Program
Sibshops are a celebration of the many contributions made by brothers and sisters. Sibshops offer brothers and sisters of children with disabilities the opportunity to meet other siblings of people with special needs, share common joys and concerns, and learn about the implications of their siblings’ disability-all in a lively, recreational environment.
