SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT

Residential Aftercare Program Our Residential Aftercare Program (RAP) is dedicated to meeting the immediate needs of the men that enter into our program, providing housing, food, clothing, transportation, and basic health care. Each resident works closely with a case manager and counselor to identify individual needs, establish treatment goals, and connect them to the services that they need. RAP also includes weekly classes that develop the personal well-being of the men, such as Anger Management, Family Reunification, Critical Thinking, and Relapse Prevention.

The goal is to help residents find employment, develop career goals, and enter into permanent housing.
