We want to come in and meet families where they're at and really help to shore up those you know those strengths and bring those to the forefront and help them to look at and make adjustments to strengthen the places that aren't so strong.
Imagine a service that steps into the chaos of a struggling household and offers tailored support right where it's needed most. In this episode of 'One Hour AT A Time', Mary Woods sits down with Charles Elias and Mary Jo Degrande to discuss PRN for Families, a unique home-based program designed to help families in crisis.
This isn't your typical support system; PRN for Families brings intensive, personalized care directly into the homes of those in need, whether they're dealing with out-of-control teenagers or young adults transitioning to independence. Charles and Mary Jo dive into the nuts and bolts of their approach, explaining how they collaborate with schools, provide crisis intervention, and offer ongoing support. They emphasize the importance of working within the family's home environment, which allows for a more accurate assessment and effective intervention.
It's not just about addressing immediate crises but also about equipping families with the skills they need for long-term success. You'll hear about the comprehensive planning and case management that goes into each family's unique treatment plan, including life skills training and family communication enhancement. The episode also touches on the role of personality testing in understanding each family member's needs and strengths. This conversation is a must-listen for anyone interested in innovative approaches to family preservation.
Whether you're a parent facing challenges or a professional in the field, you'll find valuable insights and practical advice on how to support families in their journey toward stability and health.
