OTS program operates on a behavioral level system. Residents are able to earn their privileges and assume higher levels of responsibility commensurate with their progress on targeted behavior and treatment issues. Resident care staff work night-awake shifts staffing the home 24 hours a day. The treatment program has a strong independent living component; residents take turns helping plan meals, shopping for groceries, preparing and cleaning up after meals, and planning weekly recreation activities. Adolescents will attend a local community school and a school liaison maintains close contact with each resident’s teachers. Residents are encouraged to apply for and hold after-school jobs in the community, when appropriate. Discharge planning begins at admission with particular attention paid to the individual’s current and projected levels of functioning, her support system and her concerns. The ultimate goal of treatment is to discharge the resident to a less restrictive level of care are family reunification when appropriate. Upon graduation of the OTS program lives of young girls will be transformed and options will be created for Success.
