Reentry Therapy Services
Youth Transitional Intervention Program - provides Latino reentry youth with culturally relevant and language appropriate aftercare services that will extend substance abuse treatment, prevent recidivism, improve youth environments (family, school, work, and community), and provide access to pro-social activities and local resources. This intensive aftercare program provides two evidence based models for individual and family services aimed at preventing recidivism and improving pro-social behaviors, school performance, and family bonding. These models include the Brief Strategic Family Therapy (BSFT), the Adolescent Community Reinforcement Approach (ACRA) and the Assertive Continuing Care (ACC) models from the Center of Substance Abuse and Treatment.
The program includes:
- Pre-release contact with youth while in custody to establish rapport and assess youth and families needs prior to release
- 16-22 weeks Post-Release BSFT family therapy and ACRA individual therapy with a bilingual/bicultural MSW therapist
- 16 weeks of Intensive ACC case management & referral services
- Monthly peer groups and field trips
BSFT, ACRA and ACC models are evidenced based models the Foundation replicated through funding from SAMHSA through their Center for Substance Abuse Treatment.
