Therapeutic Mentoring offers structured, group, and one-to-one strength-based support services between a Therapeutic Mentor and a youth (up to the age of 21). This supports specific goals on the child’s behavioral treatment plan such as developing social skills, interpersonal skills, problem solving strategies, and/or daily living skills.
Our mentors are intentional about making viable connections with the youth we serve. We routinely use outings as opportunities to develop and nurture connections. These relationships often last long after the mentoring process has formally ended. Our mentors are also required to have background checks.
Parent Coaching involves an approach to supporting parents/caregivers by equipping them with some basic, alternative and non-traditional tools and methods for parenting that better enable them to foster the structure and environment that gives impetus to the development of the child while reducing risk factors. It is designed to improve challenging behaviors in children and youth. This service is much like a sports coach who tells a player what to do to improve performance.
Help for Parents of Troubled Teens. Is your teenager violent, depressed, abusing alcohol or drugs, or facing other problems? Redemption can provide parents with the appropriate tools to better deal with these challenges. We offer support to parents when they feel overwhelmed and inadequate.
Your teen may be taller than you and seem mature in some respects, but often they are simply unable to think things through on an adult level. Hormones produced during the physical changes of adolescence can further complicate things. Now, these biological differences don’t excuse teens’ poor behavior or absolve them from accountability for their actions, but they may help explain why teens behave so impulsively or frustrate parents and teachers with their poor decisions, social anxiety, and rebelliousness.
Restorative Practices is a social science that studies how to improve and repair relationships between people and communities.
The 3 values of restorative justice requires three things of the person who has caused a harm: 1) an acceptance of personal blame for inflicting harm; 2) a willingness to witness first-hand the consequences of their actions on the lives of those they hurt; and 3) an assumption of active responsibility for doing all they can to put things right again.
We use Restorative Practices as a tool to help our youth resolve any conflicts they may have.
We offer restorative practices for adults in corporate/professional environments as well.
