Counseling The Family Support Center has a licensed and trained clinical staff to assist families and individuals in dealing with many of life's various stressors. Along with offices designed for traditional therapy, all locations have rooms available for play therapy, which helps children express their emotions in

their natural language of play.


801-229-1181

As stated in the mission statement, The Family Support Center is devoted to protecting children, strengthening families, and preventing child abuse. Our counseling services were established with that goal in mind.

Persons interested in counseling can call any Family Support Center location and speak with a clinician. The clinician will determine if treatment at the Center is appropriate.

Fees for counseling services, group therapy, and parenting classes are charged on the state's sliding scale, taking into consideration the client's income and family size.

The Family Support Center also accepts some insurance plans and Medicaid.Crisis Nursery

Crisis nurseries in Midvale, Sugarhouse, and West Valley. Crisis Nursery care is available to any parent who needs it. No fee is ever charged for nursery use. The Crisis Nurseries can be used for: preventing

abuse and neglect of children, stress breaks, medical emergencies, appointments, legal obligations, job searching, interviews, family emergencies, and other crisis situations.

Care at a Family Support Center's Crisis Nursery is provided in renovated older homes with warm, homelike atmospheres, situated in quiet residential neighborhoods. Crisis intervention by the clinical staff is available 24 hours a day. Rotating shifts of houseparents, directed by a Crisis Nursery Director, provide 24 hour, 365 days per year care. The Nurseries do have scheduled closures, but they can be opened in the event of an emergency.

Foster grandparents and trained volunteers also assist in caring for children. Many of the house staff are bilingual, which ensures access by all members of the Salt Lake County's diverse population.

Children under the age of 12 can stay from a couple of hours up to 72 hours each time they are admitted. Each nursery can house as many as eight overnight. Since the Crisis Nursery Program began in 1977, the Family Support Center has provided over 1 million hours of crisis/respite care to young children in danger of abuse, neglect, or abandonment. In addition to crisis services, the nursery offers parents time-out breaks. These breaks are known as respite care. Please call in advance to schedule.

We serve families and individuals in Utah County, Summit County, Wasatch County, Juab County, and Millard County. Our agency is committed to improving our community by providing therapeutic treatment for children, adults, and families whose lives have been

affected by abuse or neglect, prevention programs which teach children how to prevent their own abuse, and parenting classes that provide overwhelmed parents new techniques in successfully raising strong, healthy, happy children.

We also offer a 24-hour Crisis Respite Nursery available for free to parents in need of a time-out to regroup and take care of other pressing issues that affect the family.

Our Adoption Respite program assists parents who have adopted children that struggle with attachment and bonding issues.


801-229-1181

Crisis Respite Nursery The Crisis Respite Nursery is designed to provide a safe, homelike environment where parents can bring their children during times of stress. The

primary purpose of the Nursery is child abuse prevention. Examples of possible reasons for using the nursery include: medical emergencies, financial stress, family violence, divorce, parenting difficulties, and previous abuse issues.

The Nursery is not designed for use as a daycare while parents are at work or in school. The Crisis Respite Nursery is provides care for children ages 0-11. It is a free service, but we ask for a $1 suggested donation at each Nursery use. The

Nursery serves children in the Utah, Wasatch, Summit, Juab and Millard Counties. Unfortunately, the nursery cannot take children with severe physical, medical, or mental disabilities.

Crisis Care Crisis situations can vary and are judged on a case-by-case basis. Please call ahead to check on space. After regular business hours and on weekends,

there is an on-call worker available to come in for emergencies. The following is a list of some of the common crisis situations:o Children needing a safe place from abuse, neglect, or domestic violenceo Medical emergencieso Parents who are experiencing a mental or physical health crisiso Serious accidents including car accidents, fires, floods, etc.o Death of a family member

Respite Care In addition to crisis services, the nursery offers respite care for less urgent needs. Respite care hours are Mon/Tue/Wed/Thur. 9am-9pm and Fri. 9am-

5pm. The following is a list of some of the common respite needs:o Therapy appointmentso Medical appointmentso Court hearingso Support groupso Time-out break (up to 3 hours per week of personal time for parents)o For appointments, you may call the week before to check for Nursery space. For Time-out breaks, you may call the day before to check for

Nursery space. With questions or to schedule time in the Nursery, please call our Nursery Coordinator, Rachelle Hardman at (801) 229-1181.

Therapy Individual, Family, and Group Therapy sessions provide children, adults, and families whose lives have been affected by child abuse and/or other

personal and family issues with an opportunity to heal from traumatic experiences. Our therapists provide professional therapy services at a lower cost than most counseling and therapy providers in the county.

Therapy fees are based on a sliding scale according to the individual’s ability to pay. We are an outpatient facility, which means that clients primarily have access to therapists during regular business hours only.


801-229-1181

We do not provide any kind of medication treatment. Included on our staff are 2 full-time therapists who speak Spanish fluently. We offer the following forms of therapy:

o Play therapy o Sand tray therapy o Family therapy o Marriage therapy o Individual therapy

Play Therapy gives children 18 months to 18 years an opportunity to confront their traumatic experiences in a way that is appropriate for their age and developmental levels. Child-Centered Play Therapy typically focuses on issues such as safety, empowerment, and relationships. Because play is the natural language of children, this method of treatment allows them the freedom to confront their trauma without asking them to answer questions and interpret others’ actions that are beyond their level of understanding. Our agency has the largest number of therapists trained in play therapy so as to provide children with quality care without the threat of re-victimization.

Rape, Abuse, & Incest National Networkhttps://www.rainn.org/get-help/national-sexual-assault-hotline

National Sexual Assault Hotline Toll-Free Hotline: 1-800-656-HOPE At any given moment, more than 1,100 trained volunteers are on duty and available to help victims at RAINN-affiliated crisis centers across the country. The concept behind the hotline is simple. When a caller dials 1.800.656.HOPE, a computer notes the area code and first three digits of the caller's

phone number. The call is then instantaneously connected to the nearest RAINN member center. If all counselors at that center are busy, the call is sent to the next closest center. The caller's phone number is not retained, so the call is anonymous and confidential unless the caller chooses to share personally-identifying information.

When RAINN was founded, we surveyed the directors of dozens of rape crisis centers and state and national anti-sexual assault organizations as well as many victims of sexual violence. The advice was unanimous: The best support services for rape, sexual assault and incest victims are those offered at community rape treatment centers.

Each local center is the best resource for victims in its community, not only for counseling but also for information about community resources and emergency protocols. In addition, because rape and sexual assault laws vary by state, local centers are in the best position to advise survivors on the legal aspects of the crime.

RAINN does not have any record of a caller's phone number or name. Callers always have the choice of whether or not to share their real name or phone number with counselors; they are never obligated to reveal this information. In other words, we will know who you are only if you choose to tell us.

If a caller is under age 18 and chooses to share personally-identifying information with the counselor, most states require the counselor to notify authorities of the sexual assault of a minor. Only in this situation — when a minor calls and chooses to reveal identifying information — does the pledge of confidentiality not apply.

While almost all callers are connected directly to a counselor, a handful of our local affiliates use an answering service after regular business hours. In these cases, callers may choose to leave a phone number with the answering service, in which case the number will be confidential and will be given directly to a counselor to call back. Or, callers may choose to call back during business hours, when they will be connected directly.

Adoption Program Adoption services are used when children in state custody can’t return to their original home. Children may be adopted by relatives, families who

fostered them, or other families seeking to add a new family member. Adoption assessments are done in a way that prepares and trains families to foster or adopt a child who has unique needs. Families and children are

matched in an attempt to find the very best family for each child. Adopted children may qualify for adoption assistance until they are 18 years old. The goal is to ensure a successful experience for both the child and the

family.Domestic Violence Program

1-800-897-LINK (5465) The LINKline operates 24-7. The Statewide Domestic Violence Info-line will LINK you to free help, including counseling, shelter, and other services.

Foster Care Children in foster care stay with a family who provides safety, nurturing, support, and role models for change. A child or youth may be placed in foster care as a result of a juvenile court order finding of abuse, neglect, or dependency. Child and Family Services offers a 90-day maximum voluntary foster care placement. Every effort is made to keep children with their families unless the safety needs of the children or legal mandates indicate otherwise. Once a child is placed in the custody of Child and Family Services, the goal is to provide permanency, safety, and enduring relationships, along with a

sense of family, stability, and belonging in the least restrictive setting possible. In determining a permanent home for a child, Child and Family Services reviews the following priority for placement: kin of the family of origin, foster

family, adoptive family, permanent custody and then guardianship, or independent living. Many families in Utah are willing to take foster children into their homes and care for them in a kind and loving manner until they can be returned to

their own home or placed into a more permanent home.In-Home Services

Services can include teaching parenting skills, developing child safety plans, teaching conflict resolution and problem solving skills, and linking the family to broad-based community resources.

Voluntary services (Protective Services Counseling) Court-ordered services (Protective Services Supervision) Intensive services (Protective Family Preservation). These intensive services are provided to children who are at immediate risk of an out-of-home

placementKinship Care


801-229-1181

Kinship caregivers are preferred placements for children due to their knowledge of and relationship with the family and the child. When kinship caregivers are identified, Child and Family Services will conduct an assessment to determine the ability and willingness of the kinship

caregivers to promote safety, well-being, stability, and permanency for the child. When children are placed with a kinship caregiver, the relative can become a licensed foster care provider in order to get extra supports and services,

while custody of the children remains with Child and Family Services. Custody can also be given to the relative, with the court often ordering In-Home Services be provided by Child and Family Services. We encourage kinship caregivers to become licensed foster parents so they will have the extra supports they need as they begin to care for the child.

families and other professionals to provide the best outcomes for each individual.Intake

The first appointment in psychotherapy often consists of a clinical interview. The therapist uses this format to gain information about the patient and to formulate the most effective treatment plan for them. If a child is the primary patient, most of the first visit is spent interviewing the child’s parent or guardian. The first visit is also a very good time for patients to ask their therapist any questions they may have at the outset of treatment.

The ChainBreaker Foundation assists adult victims of all types of abuse–physical, sexual, spiritual, emotional, and verbal. Our purpose is to provide education, guidance, and support. To do this, the ChainBreaker Foundation provides free, educational classes every Tuesday night. These classes are taught by various professionals who

volunteer to come speak to us, including therapists, attorneys, physicians, judges, motivational speakers, and authors. Classes are taught on various subjects. Any adult, male or female, is welcome to attend. The material is usually not appropriate for children, however, teenagers often come with their parents.

We also have trained volunteers who guide victims to the resources in the community and through the court system if necessary. If a victim needs to go to court, volunteers will accompany them so they don’t have to go alone.


801-229-1181

The volunteers are a guide, helping their clients find help by pulling from any resource they can, but they also are a friend. If a client just needs to vent, they can call their Chainbreakers mentor. The mentors are aware that many situations are dangerous and are very cautious and conscientious about talking to their clients.

Some of our other resources include a library of appropriate books, an opportunity to contribute to the community through humanitarian projects, and free clothing.

Free, educational classes are held Tuesday nights from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at 165 North 1330 West, Suite A-1, Orem, UT.

Please check calendar for information on upcoming training dates and to the information pages below for specific scheduled trainings. Additionally, if you have specific questions about a training or would like to request one, please contact [email protected].

Sexual Assault Response Team (SART) The purpose of UCASA's Sexual Assault Response Team Coordination Project is to maintain a statewide multi-disciplinary team of sexual assault experts

to identify and disseminate evidence-based practices for responding to victims of sexual violence. The main goal of this team is to educate professionals to provide a trauma informed victim-centered response to victims of sexual assault in order to

enhance victim services, medical care, investigation, and prosecution. Recent research indicates that when victims of sexual assault receive comprehensive victim-centered care, this not only supports healing from trauma,

but also facilitates continued engagement of victims in the investigative and prosecutorial process, leading to an increased ability to hold perpetrators accountable.

Advocacy Training UCASA trains and certifies sexual assault victim advocates through UCASA's accredited 40-hour Rape Crisis Advocacy Training, which satisfies the

requirements for sexual assault counselors as mandated by the Utah Confidential Communications Act (Utah Code 78-3C). This training is open to volunteer and professional victim advocates, law enforcement, health care professionals, clergy, therapists and anyone else who

would like to increase their comfort and competence in working with victims. You may also request for UCASA to come and present a specific module to your agency or group.

Children’s House International maintains the mission statement: “To provide children worldwide with loving homes and to provide families with the support they need to adopt and parent their children. We provide ethical adoption services. Our humanitarian efforts also extend to the children who are not adopted; to place them back with their birth families or to provide options for them to remain in a positive and healthy environment in their own countries.”

Children’s House International has a staff of well trained dedicated professionals that provide the following services: Child placement in 11 countries worldwide. Adoption homestudy evaluation for WA, UT and FL families adopting internationally. Homestudy reviews for all out-of-state families who wish to adopt through Children’s House International programs. Post adoptive supervision and counseling for adoptive families.

Children’s House International believes that international adoptive education is a lifelong journey. We share from one another and keep learning along the way. As we reflect on the international adoption in the 50′s, 60′s and 70′s we’ve learned that parent education is crucial to the success of the adoption as is, ongoing family education on everything from the child’s birth country to the issue of adoption in adolescence and beyond.

We require that all prospective adoptive parents receive parent education on Hague related topics. This can be done by using on-line training courses. All required training should be completed prior to home study review and approval by the agency.

Adoption Services Children's Service Society is the oldest child-placing agency in Utah. CSS began in October 1884 as a daycare facility. Within two weeks, CSS became an

orphanage when an unwed mother with a baby in her arms knocked on the door looking for a place to stay. Since that beginning, we have provided services to thousands of mothers with unintended pregnancies and thousands of children who have needed

permanent families.Grandfamilies

There are 82,820 children in Utah who are being raised by a relative. Although the number one reason for this fact is drug use by the child's parent(s), there are also other issues such as poverty, death of the parent, and mental illness.

These children come to their relative's home with a myriad of issues and caregivers face many obstacles in meeting their needs. Many of these children have been neglected and abused in the homes of their parents


801-229-1181

GRANDFAMILIES is a support, advocacy, educational and crisis intervention program of the Children's Service Society. The program was created in 2002 to meet the growing needs of individuals and/or families that are caring for a relative's child. Our focus is to provide information and support to these families so that the needs of safety and permanency for the children in these families can be met.

Our services include:o Crisis interventiono Adult educational support groupso Children's support groupso Links to community resourceso Drug and alcohol prevention services for childreno We provide these services through Grandfamilies First Classes, Children's groups, and Friend 2 Friend meetings (please go to the tab "Our

Program" for a full description). To reduce the stress of coming to a class, we provide a light supper with each group. We do not charge for our services but donations are gladly accepted.

Home StudyDomestic Home Study

A home study or adoptive evaluation is a state required documentation process that covers your readiness and ability to adopt. A licensed social worker will visit with your family in your home. This is an excellent time for the worker to get to know you and understand your motivation to adopt. Although it may appear overwhelming and possibly invasive at first, you will begin to see that it can actually be an positive experience where you are able to share your family's strengths. Your home study worker is there to help you bring your child home rather than hinder you in the process. Children's Service Society conducts domestic and international homestudies for families in the state of Utah.

Typically a domestic home study takes three to four weeks once you have submitted all required documentation. Most families take about two weeks to gather all the required documents. After you have submitted your home study packet and questionnaire, your worker will schedule a home visit. Following this point it may take a couple weeks for your worker to compile the information into the home study document.

Each family member must have seen a doctor in the last six months. Several background clearances will be run on each family member over 18 years of age. All criminal acts, no matter how long ago, must be disclosed to

the worker. We request five references and contact them regarding your ability to parent an adopted child. Each able family member will be interviewed regarding the adoption process.

Home Visitation Parents as Teachers (PAT) is a parent education and family support program serving families throughout pregnancy until their child enters kindergarten,

usually age 5. Parents are supported by PAT-certified parent educators trained to translate scientific information on early brain development into specific when,

what, how and why advice for families. By understanding what to expect during each stage of development, parents can easily capture the teachable moments in everyday life to enhance their child's language development, intellectual growth, social development and motor skills.As a PAT family, you receive:


801-229-1181

Personal visits -- during which your parent educator will share age-appropriate child development and parenting information, help you learn to observe your child, and address your parenting concerns.

Parent group meetings -- which are opportunities to share information about parenting issues and child development. Parents learn and support each other, observe their children with other children and practice parenting skills.

Screenings -- to assess your child's overall development as well as health, hearing and vision. Resource network -- that links your family to other community services.

Care About Childcare The mission of Care About Childcare is to promote quality environments for all children through education and support. Child care is much more than just caring for children. Child care is a family issue, a business issue, an employment issue, an education issue, and a

community issue.

Adoption Program Adoption services are used when children in state custody can’t return to their original home. Children may be adopted by relatives, families who

fostered them, or other families seeking to add a new family member. Adoption assessments are done in a way that prepares and trains families to foster or adopt a child who has unique needs. Families and children are

matched in an attempt to find the very best family for each child. Adopted children may qualify for adoption assistance until they are 18 years old. The goal is to ensure a successful experience for both the child and the

family.Domestic Violence Program

1-800-897-LINK (5465) The LINKline operates 24-7. The Statewide Domestic Violence Info-line will LINK you to free help, including counseling, shelter, and other services.

Foster Care Children in foster care stay with a family who provides safety, nurturing, support, and role models for change. A child or youth may be placed in foster care as a result of a juvenile court order finding of abuse, neglect, or dependency. Child and Family Services offers a 90-day maximum voluntary foster care placement.


801-229-1181

Every effort is made to keep children with their families unless the safety needs of the children or legal mandates indicate otherwise. Once a child is placed in the custody of Child and Family Services, the goal is to provide permanency, safety, and enduring relationships, along with a

sense of family, stability, and belonging in the least restrictive setting possible. In determining a permanent home for a child, Child and Family Services reviews the following priority for placement: kin of the family of origin, foster

family, adoptive family, permanent custody and then guardianship, or independent living. Many families in Utah are willing to take foster children into their homes and care for them in a kind and loving manner until they can be returned to

their own home or placed into a more permanent home.In-Home Services

Services can include teaching parenting skills, developing child safety plans, teaching conflict resolution and problem solving skills, and linking the family to broad-based community resources. Voluntary services (Protective Services Counseling) Court-ordered services (Protective Services Supervision) Intensive services (Protective Family Preservation). These intensive services are provided to children who are at immediate risk of an out-of-home

placementKinship Care

Kinship caregivers are preferred placements for children due to their knowledge of and relationship with the family and the child. When kinship caregivers are identified, Child and Family Services will conduct an assessment to determine the ability and willingness of the kinship

caregivers to promote safety, well-being, stability, and permanency for the child. When children are placed with a kinship caregiver, the relative can become a licensed foster care provider in order to get extra supports and services,

while custody of the children remains with Child and Family Services. Custody can also be given to the relative, with the court often ordering In-Home Services be provided by Child and Family Services. We encourage kinship caregivers to become licensed foster parents so they will have the extra supports they need as they begin to care for the child.

Adoption Services Children's Service Society is the oldest child-placing agency in Utah. CSS began in October 1884 as a daycare facility. Within two weeks, CSS became an

orphanage when an unwed mother with a baby in her arms knocked on the door looking for a place to stay. Since that beginning, we have provided services to thousands of mothers with unintended pregnancies and thousands of children who have needed

permanent families.Home StudyDomestic Home Study

A home study or adoptive evaluation is a state required documentation process that covers your readiness and ability to adopt. A licensed social worker will visit with your family in your home. This is an excellent time for the worker to get to know you and understand your motivation to adopt. Although it may appear overwhelming and possibly invasive at first, you will begin to see that it can actually be an positive experience where you are able to share your family's strengths. Your home study worker is there to help you bring your child home rather than hinder you in the process. Children's Service Society conducts domestic and international homestudies for families in the state of Utah.

Typically a domestic home study takes three to four weeks once you have submitted all required documentation. Most families take about two weeks to gather all the required documents. After you have submitted your home study packet and questionnaire, your worker will schedule a home visit. Following this point it may take a couple weeks for your worker to compile the information into the home study document.

Each family member must have seen a doctor in the last six months. Several background clearances will be run on each family member over 18 years of age. All criminal acts, no matter how long ago, must be disclosed to

the worker. We request five references and contact them regarding your ability to parent an adopted child. Each able family member will be interviewed regarding the adoption process.

Home Visitation Parents as Teachers (PAT) is a parent education and family support program serving families throughout pregnancy until their child enters kindergarten,

usually age 5. Parents are supported by PAT-certified parent educators trained to translate scientific information on early brain development into specific when,

what, how and why advice for families. By understanding what to expect during each stage of development, parents can easily capture the teachable moments in everyday life to enhance their child's language development, intellectual growth, social development and motor skills.As a PAT family, you


801-229-1181

receive: Personal visits -- during which your parent educator will share age-appropriate child development and parenting information, help you learn to observe

your child, and address your parenting concerns. Parent group meetings -- which are opportunities to share information about parenting issues and child development. Parents learn and support each

other, observe their children with other children and practice parenting skills. Screenings -- to assess your child's overall development as well as health, hearing and vision. Resource network -- that links your family to other community services.

Care About Childcare The mission of Care About Childcare is to promote quality environments for all children through education and support. Child care is much more than just caring for children. Child care is a family issue, a business issue, an employment issue, an education issue, and a

community issue.

UFC has seven offices located in five regions and operates under a contract with the Utah Division of Child & Family Services (DCFS).Becoming a Foster Parent

Starting is as simple as talking to a Utah Foster Care (UFC) staff member. You can call us directly at 1 (877) 505-5437, or request more info. After clearing a few, short qualifying questions we’ll schedule a face-to-face meeting (called an in-home consultation). During the in-home consultation,

our staff will help you decide whether becoming a foster/adoptive family is right for you. If foster care is a good fit, you’ll be invited to attend pre-service training classes and begin the licensing process. It’s important to understand that you

will work with three agencies as you move from training to licensure to caring for children. It usually takes 4–6 months to become licensed, so don’t wait to get started!

Current Foster Parents Foster parents are valued and supported at Utah Foster Care (UFC). In fact, we have team members in offices across the state whose goal is to support

you! As a foster parent, you’re a vital part of Utah’s child welfare team — a team dedicated to serving some of Utah’s most vulnerable residents: children in

foster care. In addition finding and training potential foster parents, Utah Foster Care helps existing foster parents become successful. Why, you ask? Successful foster parents better serve the children in their care, they also serve longer and encourage their friends and family to become involved. Referrals like this are where most future foster families come from!

Utah Home Study Business Phone: 801-888-2338 780 S. 2000 W. Suite #A102Syracuse, UT 84075

A home study in Utah is a screening of the home and of the lives of prospective adoptive parents and family members prior to an adoption taking place. A home study is required by Utah law. The study can also aid the prospective parents in preparing to raise an adopted child in helping to make families aware of the issues surrounding adoption and raising a child. The ultimate purpose of a home study is to benefit the child and to encourage that the best interests of the child are represented.

Information: The type of information that will be sought for your home study includes the determination of the family background, living circumstances, employment history a criminal background check of the prospective parents, medical background and an examination of the home.

Our purpose at Utah Home Study is to find the strengths and benefits you offer to a perspective adoptive child not to look for problems in your home or family. A home study, as its name implies, examines the dwelling of the prospective parents. Some factors that are taken into account include the cleanliness and condition of the home, safety, sanitation, and the neighborhood where the home is located. Factors pertaining to the individual family members includes their desire to adopt, their understanding of the relationship between adoptive parents and children, and their openness to addressing the unique issues associated with adoption. If there are any concerns or issues to be resolved, we will be specific and clear as to what would need to happen to qualify and receive an approved home study.

Some people may hesitate and feel that a home study can be intrusive, or who feel that there may be discrimination against certain people who seem capable of parenting, but are ruled out due to various issues. At Utah Home Study, our professionals will help you through these issues and help to put you at ease. We hope that the miracle of adoption can come to bless and to help prosper your family in wonderful ways.

relaxation training. Premarital Group

solving and conflict resolution, and marital enhancement ideas. Cancer Support Group

Neuropsychological Assessment These tests determine the effects on functioning of a traumatic brain injury or neurological illness or event, or of a congenital condition.

Marital Checkup The marital checkup is a fun, relationship-enhancing experience available for free. Participants will meet with a Marriage and Family Therapy graduate student intern for three 50-minute sessions.

Financial Individual, couple, or family counseling costs $15/session. Fees may be decreased for financial need. Please discuss fees with your assigned counselor

when you come in. Psychological assessments are $50. Typical questions include whether a person has a learning disability, an attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, or to

clarify a psychological diagnosis. Neuropsychological assessments to evaluate for possible brain damage or brain malfunction in children and adults cost $400. Participation in groups usually costs a one-time fee of $15 per person

Do I have to be LDS (Mormon) to receive services? No. While Brigham Young University is run by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, we provide services to all eligible clients regardless of

religion. During the initial interview you will be asked your religious preference, but this is to help us know you better. Waiting List for Assessments

The Clinical Psychology Program is limited in how many assessments it can perform per semester. The Clinic has a waiting list to manage the requests for these services. Assessment cases are assigned to students at the beginning of each semester. When there is an opening for another assessment, people from the waiting list are notified in order according to the date they called into the Clinic. Once we leave notification you will have two business days to respond. If we have not heard from you after two days we will move down the list. Being on the waiting list does not guarantee that you will receive services. It will still depend on whether we have someone who can provide the

particular type of assessment that you need. We won’t know that until after an intake interview is completed.


801-229-1181

Being on the waiting list does not make you a client at the Clinic nor does it open a case for you. We would encourage you to seek services elsewhere if you can’t wait. When you call to place someone on the waiting list please state the age of the person who will be assessed and the type of assessment needed (e.g.

learning disability, neuropsychological, AD/HD, etc.). The Clinic usually does not do assessments during July and August.

Our Adoption Respite program assists parents who have adopted children that struggle with attachment and bonding issues.Crisis Respite Nursery

The Crisis Respite Nursery is designed to provide a safe, homelike environment where parents can bring their children during times of stress. The primary purpose of the Nursery is child abuse prevention. Examples of possible reasons for using the nursery include: medical emergencies, financial stress, family violence, divorce, parenting difficulties, and previous abuse issues. The Nursery is not designed for use as a daycare while parents are at work or in school.

The Crisis Respite Nursery is provides care for children ages 0-11. It is a free service, but we ask for a $1 suggested donation at each Nursery use. The Nursery serves children in the Utah, Wasatch, Summit, Juab and Millard Counties. Unfortunately, the nursery cannot take children with severe physical, medical, or mental disabilities.


there is an on-call worker available to come in for emergencies. The following is a list of some of the common crisis situations: Children needing a safe place from abuse, neglect, or domestic violence Medical emergencies Parents who are experiencing a mental or physical health crisis Serious accidents including car accidents, fires, floods, etc. Death of a family member

space. With questions or to schedule time in the Nursery, please call our Nursery Coordinator, Rachelle Hardman at (801) 229-1181.

Therapy Individual, Family, and Group Therapy sessions provide children, adults, and families whose lives have been affected by child abuse and/or other

personal and family issues with an opportunity to heal from traumatic experiences. Our therapists provide professional therapy services at a lower cost than most counseling and therapy providers in the county.

Therapy fees are based on a sliding scale according to the individual’s ability to pay. We are an outpatient facility, which means that clients primarily have access to therapists during regular business hours only. We do not provide any kind of medication treatment. Included on our staff are 2 full-time therapists who speak Spanish fluently. We offer the following forms of therapy:

o Play therapy o Sand tray therapy o Family therapy o Marriage therapy o Individual therapy

Play Therapy gives children 18 months to 18 years an opportunity to confront their traumatic experiences in a way that is appropriate for their age and developmental levels. Child-Centered Play Therapy typically focuses on issues such as safety, empowerment, and relationships. Because play is the natural language of children, this method of treatment allows them the freedom to confront their trauma without asking them to answer questions and interpret others’ actions that are beyond their level of understanding. Our agency has the largest number of therapists trained in play therapy so as to provide children with quality care without the threat of re-victimization.

Parenting Based on Love, Limits and Latitude, this program is offered in homes as well as traditional classes. The traditional 10 week, group course is offered

several times each year. In rural communities or areas where resources are limited, the “in-home” parenting program has been particularly beneficial. Please call for a current schedule or for more information. (These services are available in Utah, Wasatch, Summit, Millard and Juab counties.)

Prevention Education The Prevention Education program provides presentations for preschoolers all the way up to seniors in high school on how they can fight their own

abuse or get help if they have been a victim. This free service hopes to prevent the occurrence of child abuse and neglect by heightening awareness of the dynamics of abuse and enhancing personal safety skills. By providing students with information about abuse and subsequent personal safety skills, children will be more empowered to help themselves (or to seek help) if the need arises.

All material taught in these lessons are age-appropriate and approved by Nebo, Provo, and Alpine School Districts.Elementary Presentations

What Tadoo: Pre-K – 2nd

Children learn the basic safety rules about touches: "go" touches make us happy (hugs), "stop" touches make us sad (hits), and confusing touches are not okay! We identify private parts as the parts of our body covered up by a bathing suit. We discuss the meaning of the word private, off-limits for others, with a few exceptions (mom helping in the bath). Children also learn the safety rules: say no, get away, and tell someone!

What Tadoo With Secrets: 3rd – 4th Children have a basic review of What Tadoo principles. Then we identify different kinds of secrets. We discuss good secrets, bad secrets, and where to

go with bad secrets. We watch a movie about a little girl who has a bad secret and watch her gain the courage to tell her mom what's going on.Yes You Can Say No: 5th -6th Basic principles of What Tadoo About Secrets are reviewed. In this presentation, we discuss the meaning of being assertive and how it can help in lots

of different life situations. We watch a movie about a little boy who learns to stand up for himself against an uncle who has been bothering him.Junior High, High School, and Adulthood Presentations

Stress Management: Stress is defined and we discuss what happens to our bodies and emotions during the stress response. While stress can be helpful, we need to keep it

under control. There are four great coping strategies: Find the Hope (positive thinking), Relaxing Activities, Taking Breaks, and Receive Support. We will do several activities including a stressful dice game, a positive thinking exercise, and a relaxation activity.

Depression and Suicide: Depression affects many people and the better we understand it, the more tools we will have to overcome it. Depression is compared to a glass of

water sitting on a three-legged stool. The water is sadness gathered up over time that is difficult to let go or dump out. The three legs of the stool are different causes of depression. We talk about what the causes are (environmental, psychological, biological), and how to cut down each leg of the stool and dump out the glass. We also address suicide by helping people understand the mindset of someone who is suicidal. It is an understandably difficult place to be, however, suicide should never be an option. There is help and there is hope when it comes to overcoming emotional pain or emptiness.

Dynamics of Abuse: The four main types of child abuse are defined and minimally discussed. We point out basic signs and symptoms for the different types of abuse. We

watch a movie about four children who want to tell their story about abuse. Healing from abuse is illustrated through an object lesson. The main objective is to increase understanding and awareness of what child abuse is and where people can go to report the abuse and seek help in overcoming it.

Dating Violence: This is a very fun lesson with role plays and group discussion. We talk about healthy relationships and red flags of unhealthy relationships. We discuss

the dangers of future abuse if people allow themselves to be controlled be their significant other. Boys and girls can be guilty of being controlling and that is the foundation of abusive personalities. We also discuss dangers of date rape, drug use, and domestic violence. Depth of content depends on the age of the audience.

Positive Child Guidance:


801-229-1181

In order to help kids behave better we need to understand some basic things about them. They communicate through their behavior, not their words. They have ego-centric thinking because their brains have not finished developing. The basis of discipline with a child is the relationship so we discuss relationship bank accounts. Once there is some basic understanding in place we discuss setting limits and a relationship builder called special play.

Adoption RespiteOur Adoption Respite program provides both in-home and on-site respite services to parents who have adopted children from within the Division of Child and Family Services (DCFS) system or who currently have a DCFS adoption caseworker. In-home respite services are provided to families at risk of adoption disruption to increase successful interactions within the family system and to

provide parents with opportunities to rejuvenate themselves. This rejuvenation helps parents to better handle the unique challenges that come with adopting children who have experienced trauma from abuse

and/or neglect, who struggle to feel safe enough to trust adults to care for them appropriately, and who continually test their parents' commitment level to maintaining the children within the family unit.

maladaptive attempt to effect change in a relationship. Individual and group therapy are offered to clients, as well as family therapy when appropriate. ISAT provides specialized therapy services to victims, children, and offenders, with goals which are individualized to their unique experience.

For over 20 years, LifeStar has been helping individuals, spouses, and families heal from the devastating effects of pornography addiction and other sexually compulsive behaviors. Through an innovative and proven three phase treatment program, this intensive outpatient group therapy approach gives participants the resources, support, and structure needed to experience a successful recovery from the damaging effects of pornography and sexual addiction.

LifeStar is an Internationally recognized treatment program in nearly 40 Cities across the U.S. and Canada. Developed by Dan Gray and Todd Olson, LifeStar is run by highly trained and licensed therapists who specialize in sexual addiction recovery. Each phase of recovery is specifically designed to gently uncover, yet aggressively heal, the destructive patterns that create and maintain addictive behaviors. Workbooks, along with other materials, help provide education and structure throughout the different phases of treatment.

Whether you are the individual with the addiction, the spouse or partner of an addict, or are concerned about your teen’s possible addiction, LifeStar has a plan specifically for you! Call 1-888-512-6757 to find a LifeStar office near you.

Getting Started Workshop The eight-week Getting Started Workshop provides the tools and support you need to begin your journey toward lasting recovery from pornography or

other compulsive or addictive sexual behaviors. You will learn how to reclaim your life and restore hope in your future. To register, call (801) 272-3420 or email us at [email protected] The workshop consists of 8 weekly sessions lasting 1.5 hours each. Workshops are usually scheduled on weekday evenings although daytime workshops

are sometimes available. Who Attends

o Individuals who are struggling to overcome pornography or other compulsive or addictive sexual behavior. For those who are married, we strongly encourage their spouse to join them at the workshop so they can begin the process of education and healing together.

Pre-requisiteso All participants are interviewed by a trained and licensed LifeStar counselor to be sure the workshop is right for them.

Formato The workshop is educational in nature with group sizes of 10 to 40 people. Workbooks and small group sharing of homework is part of the

experience. All participants are required to sign a confidentiality agreement promising to safeguard the identity and information of those attending the program.

Curriculumo The workshop covers well-established tools and principles of recovery from compulsive sexual behaviors, including:

The cycle of compulsive sexual behavior and its effects on the brain How to break out of the drama triangle, in which we engage with others as either victims, perpetrators, or rescuers. How to heal from unhealthy family patterns How to escape painful cycles of shame and acting out


801-229-1181

Expectationso Please expect to actively participate in the group process. Come with a non-judgmental attitude and a willingness to be open and receptive.

THIS IS HARD WORK! Expect to push the limits of your comfort zone. With struggle comes great strength and healing. Prepare to be loved and cared about. And prepare for a safe environment to share your experience and begin on the road to a lasting recovery.

Costo The cost varies based on your needs and interests. The programs below are available.

$850 Couples workshop program (Includes 8-week workshop, 4 workbooks, couple intake interview) $650 Individual workshop and coaching program (Includes 8-week workshop, 4 workbooks, intake interview, 4 half-hour coaching sessions) $450 Individual workshop program (Includes 8-week workshop, 4 workbooks, intake interview)

Follow up groups and individual counseling are also available.Recovery Groups

LifeStar’s Recovery Groups provide individuals struggling with problem sexual behaviors and, if married, their spouses with tools and support necessary to create lasting recovery. Participants learn how to reclaim their lives, reestablish trust, and restore hope in their future.

Highly trained and licensed therapists lead all groups. Workbooks, along with other materials and exercises, are used throughout the program and are included in the cost.

In Recovery Groups, participants complete tasks and assignments and hold one another accountable. The tools and principles acquired in this phase lay the groundwork for lasting recovery. The workbooks for the Recovery Groups focus on denial, the addiction cycle, fantasies and objectification, relapse prevention, and healthy living. Those with the addiction should stay in a Recovery Group until they have a detailed understanding of their own addictive system, have established solid sobriety, and are implementing an effective treatment plan, including a network of support.

Spouses in Recovery Groups take a deep look at their own experience of the addiction, particularly their trauma and any enabling or co-dependent behaviors they engage in. They learn to establish and maintain healthy boundaries.

Length and Timeso Weekly meetings are 90 minutes long and meeting times are based on availability of participants. Individuals participate in Recovery Groups for

approximately 6-12 months, depending on their needs. Who Attends

o Individuals who are struggling with pornography or other compulsive or addictive sexual behaviors. Spouses are also encouraged to attend separate spouses groups.

Pre-requisiteso Participants are required to attend and complete the Getting Started Workshop before participating in a Recovery Group.

Formato Recovery Groups are small with only 4 to 10 participants. This allows for more group discussion along with individual work and processing.


801-229-1181

Those with the addiction meet in groups separate from the spouses, which allows for work to be done that meets the specific needs of these two groups.

Expectationso Active participation in the group process is crucial. Deeper, and more personal work is done in these groups. The person with problem sexual

behavior is invited to get to the root of his or her compulsion or addiction, to become accountable for his or her actions and sobriety, and to form a close-knit support group with the other group members.

Advanced groups and individual counseling are also available.Advanced Groups

Advanced Groups address underlying issues and also help individuals reinforce healthy lifestyle changes in order to keep the compulsion or addiction from reappearing in the future. Participants also learn how to improve their relationships with their spouse, children, extended family, co-workers, and friends.

In the spouse’s Advanced Group, participants work on healthy emotional expression, healing from trauma, decreasing shame, and improving their most important relationships. Spouses in Advanced Groups re-discover their best selves and build patterns for long-term healthy living. For both the person with problem sexual behavior and the spouse, Advanced Groups are a chance to practice living life without the constant threat of the compulsion or addiction and to secure what they gained from the Getting Started Workshop and Recovery Group.

Length and Timeso Weekly meetings are 90 minutes long and meeting times are based on availability of participants. Advanced Groups last approximately 8-12

months, depending on individual needs. Who Attends

o Individuals who are struggling with pornography or other compulsive or addictive sexual behaviors. Spouses are also encouraged to attend separate spouses groups.

Pre-requisiteso Participants are required to attend and complete the Getting Started Workshopand a Recovery Group before participating in an Advanced

Group. Individuals graduate from a Recovery Group to an Advanced Group when they are personally ready.


801-229-1181

Formato The small group format continues with only 4 to 10 participants in each group. Individual work and processing are an even stronger emphasis in

Advanced Groups. Spouses continue to meet separately, allowing them to delve more deeply into their personal work. Expectations

o By now, continued active participation in the group process should be routine. Advanced Groups address the issues that underlie the compulsion or addiction, such as faulty core beliefs, trauma, and abuse. Once the addiction has been stopped and the underlying issues have been addressed, healthy lifestyle changes are reinforced in order to keep addiction from reappearing. For couples in the program, this is the time to practice their new ways of relating with each other and to refine the boundary training they have received in the first two phases. Once again, expect to work hard and expand beyond your comfort zone. This is where the true lifestyle change occurs that ensures lasting recovery.

Services At Preferred Family Clinic, we subscribe to a cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) approach. Briefly, this suggests that changes in thoughts, feelings, and behaviors will effect changes in other areas of our lives. Further, we recognize the importance of a strong relationship between therapist and patient; therefore, we work in collaboration with patients, their

families and other professionals to provide the best outcomes for each individual.Intake

The first appointment in psychotherapy often consists of a clinical interview. The therapist uses this format to gain information about the patient and to formulate the most effective treatment plan for them. If a child is the primary patient, most of the first visit is spent interviewing the child’s parent or guardian. The first visit is also a very good time for patients to ask their therapist any questions they may have at the outset of treatment.

Pricing and Insurance Psychotherapy is covered by most insurance plans; however, there are some plans that do not have this option. Further, insurance plans vary in their deductibles and co-pays and which therapists are covered. Although we will make our best effort to determine

your insurance benefits, to ensure coverage please contact your insurance provider and ask about your mental health benefits.ADHD ClinicWe specialize in the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of ADHD in children, adolescents and adults. We help people through the following steps as needed:

Step 1 – Assessment and Evaluation A competent professional will perform a clinical interview, administer specific testing, and assess and rule out ADHD, learning disabilities,


801-229-1181

emotional/behavioral/social difficulties.Step 2 – Assist Primary Care Physician with Medication Management A competent professional will assist with medication compliance, report side effects, report dosage effectiveness and offer help for parents and

patients.Step 3 – Treatment For preadolescent children we will implement a structured therapeutic parenting program through online parenting training developed by Dr. Randy

Hyde http://OneWeekParentingMiracle.com. We will assist and suggest educational and home helps such as tutoring, study skills, structure and organization, IEP's and 504 accommodations,

communication and relationship skills. We will help your child work through related difficulties associated with ADHD. With adolescents we will follow the same format except will work according to their developmental and maturity levels. Often adolescents struggle

with self-esteem, confidence and social skills. We help adolescents succeed in these areas. For adults we will help with the previous items that are necessary, plus we will focus on marriage, family

and work related issues. We will teach coping and organizational skills that will help compensate for the negative effects of ADHD. We will also identify the strengths that go

along with ADHD and will utilize and build upon those.Step 4 – Group Support and Education We offer support groups for children, adolescents, parents and adults. We offer weekly classes to build and review essential tips and skills. Our

professionals will also offer continued support for other challenges, i.e. insomnia, weight loss, substance abuse, etc.Step 5 – Coordination and Report As a clinic, most of our clients come in for “Brief Therapy” approximately 3 to 6 sessions. This process, we have found, can positively affect a person in

just a few weeks, often sooner. After improvement, we follow-up with the patient and/or parents to ensure behavior continues to improve. If behavior declines, then patient and/or parents are encouraged to return and we will follow-up with them and communicate with the person's primary care physician to improve efficacy.

Psychological Testing Psychological testing is used for a number of purposes including treatment planning, diagnostic clarification, pre-employment screening, evaluation of

cognitive functioning, etc. Testing typically involves interviews, completion of questionnaires, and tests administered by a clinician. The type and number of tests used depends on the referral question that is being investigated. Further, testing may be a brief, screening process, or a lengthy, in-depth process.

The Evaluation Process Typically, psychological testing begins with a clinical interview in which the individual being tested is able to explain their symptoms or life

circumstances. The next step is administration of a battery of tests designed to answer the specific question of why the person was referred. Following completion of the testing, the results are analyzed and written into a report. For many evaluations, a feedback session where the results are explained is included.

What to Expect


801-229-1181

If you are referred for testing and an interview has already been conducted, plan to come to the clinic for 2-3 hours to complete the prescribed tests. Many tests cannot be completed outside of the clinic because of test security. You can bring food to eat, breaks can be taken as needed. If necessary, testing can be completed over multiple days although this is not optimal. A feedback session can be scheduled as soon as one week later.

Pricing and Insurance Unfortunately, many insurances do not cover psychological testing, although some do. Therefore, Preferred Family Clinic offers very reasonable prices

for those who have to pay for these services out of their pockets. A list of services and prices can be found here. We are also happy to help individuals complete the necessary forms and paperwork in order to be compensated by their insurance companies. In most cases, assessments must be approved and/or paid for prior to release of the testing results.

Out-of-Network Benefits: Many insurance plans have provider panels, which are the professionals whose services the plan will pay the maximum benefit for. Some plans allow members to “swing out” of the panel and see any provider they choose. The main disadvantage of going outside your network is that you may have to pay a deductible, or a higher deductible, and your co-payment is often higher than if you use a provider who is in the network (i.e., on your plan's panel).

Pre-authorization of services: Some plans require you, the member, to call in advance of your appointment to receive authorization (e.g., payment) for a covered service. Failure to obtain pre-authorization can result in the member being responsible for the entire fee for the appointment.

Deductible: A deductible is the amount a member must pay out-of-pocket before insurance benefits kick in. Deductibles are often listed dually, by individual and family. In other words, if you have a $300/$900 deductible it means that $300 must be met for one family member OR $900 by the family before insurance will begin paying for services. Deductibles correspond to your plan’s policy year (e.g., calendar or fiscal).

Co-payment: A co-payment is the portion of the charge for the appointment that the member is responsible for. This amount may be a specific dollar amount, a percentage of the total charge, or a combination of the two.

Marriage and Family Relations Center


The Marriage & Family Relations Center (MFRC) reaches out to couples and families in crisis. Whether your marriage simply needs a few adjustments or is falling apart, the quicker you get help the sooner your relationship will begin to heal.

What brings couples and families together in the first place — kindness, sensitivity, compromise, sacrifice — are usually the things that keep them together down the road. Criticism, blaming, stubbornness, and defensiveness are just a few of the human weaknesses that creep into a marriage and build walls of resentment and distrust, destroying feelings of good will. Unchecked, these feelings and attitudes will erode intimacy and desires to live and love together.

Many couples are frustrated that a marriage once full of love and unlimited dreams has become a constant source of tension. Others are frightened by the very real prospect of divorce.

Families, too, can be torn apart by addictions, a wayward child, or recurrent parent-child conflict. Counseling sessions with our therapists can help get family members unstuck and regain a sense of peace and harmony in the home. Professional services can likewise help couples get past arguing about problems and focus them instead on solutions that will rekindle feelings of love.

Depression and Anxiety Disorders Treatment Center


Depression and anxiety are far and away the most prevalent mental health issues of our time. The Depression & Anxiety Disorders Treatment Center (DADTC) offers clinically sound interventions that target the reduction of symptoms of both acute and chronic disorders. Whether due to genetic or psychological factors, those who suffer from mood and anxiety disorders often suffer in silence.

Cognitive distortions (often referred to as “thinking errors”) are at the root of the misery caused by depression and anxiety. Such disorders can begin in childhood (e.g., shyness), have an acute onset (e.g., postpartum depression), result from abuse or trauma, and in the most severe cases can produce low self-esteem, hopelessness, and suicidal feelings. Research has consistently shown that counseling, often in conjunction with medication, can have a


801-229-1181

powerful, lasting impact on a person’s mental health.

Divorce ProgramsDivorce education for children

While state law mandates divorce education for parents, children are rarely provided the opportunity to benefit from divorce counseling, education, or intervention.

Research has shown that children utilize minimal outside resource in their adjustment to parental divorce.Divorce education for adults

While divorcing parents have found value in being educated on ways to minimize the effects of divorce on children, resources beyond a brief education are minimal, or may be quite costly.

Given the extensive participation of extended family in the lives of children, divorce education can also be utilized by caretakers and other participants


801-229-1181

in the children’s lives.Post-divorce intervention

Those who have experienced divorce, and have children, know that divorce is a developmental process. Consequently, solutions to problems require change over time and often represent a source of conflict between parents. Post-divorce intervention

represents a potential non-litigious, less expensive, solution to on-going divorce problems.Relationship Maintenance ProgramsNon-residential parent education

Attention is given to the unique problems associated with being unable to reside with one’s family. Education/counseling of non-residential parents aids in facilitating the children’s best interest by preventing a wearing down and subsequent loss of

important relationships to the child. A second, and extremely valuable purpose to this program, is the promotion of responsible parenthood through advocacy of consistent

contact/visitation, monetary support, and other forms of child support.Access interruption

Interventions to facilitate the child’s relationship with their parents despite the numerous causes to interruption of access are solely needed. Interventions for alienating parents including: group education, individual, and family counseling. Group, individual, and family assistance to children to aid them in combing disentangled from ongoing parental conflict.

Superstructure interventions In more intensively conflicted situations between parents, and/or between individuals and state agencies, a superstructure is required (as a child

advocate) to facilitate the child’s well-being. This superstructure has many uses; from facilitating reconciliation between alienated parents and children, to transforming the relationships between

alleged victims of abuse with their alleged perpetrators. These cases will be coordinated with the judiciary as well as agents of the court to promote child well-being.

Visitation training Specific assistance in teaching appropriate behavior during visits, and during visitation transitions. This training represents an avenue for a child to be safe and protected during all phases of the visitation process. A level system will be employed which will advance participants according to measured progress. While this program is part of a Superstructure

intervention, it is also a program which has application outside of a superstructure.Families in transition program

This program is aimed at addressing the needs of children despite the courtship, remarriage, and blending of families. Inasmuch as this represents special challenges to the child, parent education as well as various counseling strategies offer a mechanism for the

changing family to progress smoothly through the transition.

Utah Youth Village Business Phone: 801-272-9980 5800 South Highland DriveSalt Lake City, Utah 84121

As one of the largest private non-profit providers of residential treatment for children who are wards of the state, we shelter and provide treatment for over 300 children a year in ten Group Homes and 50 Treatment Foster Homes throughout Utah. We also provide Families First, our unique in-home program for families with troubled children, as well as Parenting for Success Classes for the public.

Through all of our programs, we reach into neighborhoods across the country, impacting well over 3,000 lives annually. Village children come from various backgrounds. Some children, from loving and supportive families, are experiencing a self-destructive, very troubled

period. Other children have never known a loving family. In fact, the majority of our children:o Are wards of the stateo Have been the victims of physical or sexual abuseo Have not succeeded in typical foster homes, wilderness programs, or psychiatric hospitalso Are years behind in schoolo Lack fundamental life skills

We teach our children how to listen, how to take "no" for an answer, how to relate without anger, and how to set and achieve goals. They learn how to succeed in school and in a family setting. Along the way, they learn that they are important and can live responsible lives. The skills we teach even follow them throughout their lives, eventually helping them to succeed in jobs, with their spouses, and with their own children.

Group Homes Utah Youth Village operates five Group Homes, three for teenage boys, one for latency-aged girls, and one for latency-aged boys. Our homes are


801-229-1181

located along the Wasatch Front and are staffed with full-time married couples who live in each home. Youth attend public school, do chores, and work toward graduation. After graduation, most return to their families, or live with a Village foster family. If

they are 18, the Village prepares them for self-sufficiency. We teach the youth in our care to live in a normal, healthy family environment. They learn to overcome their chaotic backgrounds and to behave

appropriately. In the end, their performance at school is improved, they become more mature, and they have the skills necessary to succeed at home, in school and on the job.

Five Group Homes Six to eight children per home Children range in age from 6 - 18 73% of our youth are able to move into less restrictive foster homes, their own homes, adoptive homes, or independent living School performance improves by an average of two full grades, from D's to B's Child's maturity level increases by five years in eight months of treatment (as measured by the Nowicki-Strickland Locus-of-Control test.) Treatment provided by a highly trained married couple with support from licensed clinical staff

Latency Age Homes In addition to our three group homes for teens, the Village also offeres residential treatment services for boys and girls between the ages of 6 and 12.

These homes are designed to provide treatment for younger children who are too troubled for foster care but need an alternative to psychiatric hospitalization. The only program of its kind in the state, we provide a highly structured, home-like setting that is uniquely suited to this younger population.

Youth Village Academy The Village provides a fully accredited junior and senior high school for the few Village youth who are unable to attend public school. Instructors are

also trained in the Teaching-Family Model so youth receive therapy throughout the day in addition to instruction in core curriculum subjects.Referring a Youth

Treatment Foster Homes Village Treatment Foster Homes are the least restrictive option among the range of residential services for severely emotionally disturbed children and

adolescents. In our Treatment Foster Homes, we combine the normalizing influence of family-based care with specialized treatment interventions, creating a therapeutic environment in the context of a nurturing family home.

Over 60 homes throughout Utah 79% of our children are adopted, returned home, or placed in less restrictive foster care One to two children per home Treatment provided by Treatment Parents, highly-trained married couples who care for children in their own homes Treatment parents are well-supported by trained supervisors Treatment parents trained to address specialized issues such as substance abuse, teen motherhood, sexual reactivity, independent living, mental illness

and aggressionRefugee Children

We partner with the United Nations High Commission for Refugees and Catholic Community Services to provide foster homes and families for refugee children from war-torn countries all over the world. These children have spent years in refugee camps, have not found their parents, and would be in peril if they were to return to their native countries. With our foster families, they live in a safe, predictable home where they can resume school, learn English and other skills to succeed either in America or, if conditions improve, in their native country.

Partnerships to Provide Stability Many Village children are able to return home after treatment, but others cannot. For these children, our highly trained Treatment Foster Parents

provide long-term care, often raising these children as their legal guardians or adoptive parents. We also partner with private agencies to provide long-term foster care and adoption.

The Village also provides services to adoptive parents and potential adoptive parents to help ensure that the adoption is successful. We provide this service regardless of whether the adopted child is a Village child. We customize our approach to meet the individual needs of our long-term children, providing them with treatment, security, and above all, a family through guardianship or adoption.

Independent Living Because many of our youth will be living independent of state or family support in their teens, Utah Youth Village has developed an extensive program


801-229-1181

to teach these young people how to succeed on their own. Our training involves hands-on lessons on cooking, budgeting, renting, car ownership, shopping, and higher education.

Alpine Academy Business Phone: 800-244-1113 [email protected] 280 Whispering Horse Dr.Erda, Utah 84074

Alpine Academy, founded in 2001, is a non-profit organization, owned by Utah Youth Village, founded in 1969. We are licensed as a residential treatment facility in the state of Utah and are certified as a non-public school.

Treatment takes place in a family-style environment, which increases opportunities to realize and teach to maladaptive behaviors. This multi-dimensional strategy is a catalyst providing a nurturing, individualized, and strength-based treatment environment.

Alpine Academy focuses on a therapeutically based family style environment, with an emphasis on individualized treatment for each girl and her family. In addition to an intensive therapeutic environment, we provide comprehensive academic services. These services are provided by an accredited private school with small class size, academic plans tailored to meet each student's needs, and a

challenging yet supportive curriculum. Students may have individualized education programs, such as student-specific study at the university level, and specialized educational programs as needed.

Our parent company, Utah Youth Village, is one of the largest and oldest charities in Utah helping troubled children. It is the only organization in Utah certified to use the Teaching-Family Model, perhaps the most thoroughly researched treatment method for troubled children and families in use today. Those trained in the Teaching-Family Model provide security and love while teaching consistency and respect.

Using this method, 82% of our girls are successful at implementing their new skills and stabilizing back at home, or in a step down placement.Program Details

Families First Business Phone: Wayne Arner 801-272-9980

[email protected] 280 Whispering Horse Dr.Erda, Utah 84074

Families First is an intensive in-home intervention designed to teach parents skills to change the behaviors of their troubled children. Please download the brochure by clicking above for an in-depth description, including research results.

The children in the families we serve have a variety of emotional and behavioral problems. Some have been diagnosed with mental illnesses, some are struggling with school behaviors, some are simply ungovernable, and others are reacting poorly to their dysfunctional family environments. Many families live at or below poverty level and are struggling to find jobs, housing, clothing, and food for their children.

How it Works A Families First Specialist goes into the home of a troubled family for 8-10 hours a week for six weeks.


801-229-1181

The Specialist becomes an ally of the parents and teaches them proven methods of changing a child's destructive behaviors. They are taught how to maintain discipline without anger or violence. Positive communication skills are also taught, as well as how to effectively set and maintain boundaries.

The Specialist uses positive reinforcement, modeling, role playing, and other methods that are designed specifically to teach lasting, concrete parenting and communication skills.

Even after concluding the six-week in-home period, the Specialist continues to be a part of the family's life by remaining on-call, 24 hours a day, for the next year. The Specialist also conducts evaluations at three-month intervals after the intervention to track success and to identify possible challenges on a case by case basis.

Families First is available to the public. Some insurance companies provide coverage. Payment is determined on a sliding scale. For more information, contact Wayne Arner at [email protected] or call him at (801) 272-9980.

Parent Leadership Committee Because of the belief we have in parents being the experts on their children and family, we have developed a "parent leadership committee" comprised

of parents who have successfully completed the Families First Program themselves. This group of parents now volunteers their time providing programmatic feedback, a parent's perspective in treatment interventions, as well as being available to answer specific questions a parent may have from someone who has "been in their shoes."

be beneficial. It is a place where these individuals may live for a few weeks to a few months, while working on various phases of their rehabilitation, then move on,

when ready, into regular community life. Some structure will be provided, but the residents will be expected to make decisions, assume responsibility, and plan future objectives.

Services Many services are provided by such state agencies as Wasatch Mental Health Center, Division of Rehabilitation Services, Utah State Hospital,


801-229-1181

Department of Work Force Services, etc. Since the residents are relatively young, most of them are either attending college, technical schools, or are working or seeking employment. Recreational activities are purposely unstructured so that the residents can learn to demonstrate their own resourcefulness in this area. Frequent group activities are planned by the residents and house parents. The home will accommodate 18 residents of both sexes. All residents share common living, dining and recreation areas, but the sleeping quarters are

so designed to properly separate the two sexes.Qualifications

Be recommended by Wasatch Mental Health, Utah State Hospital, or other recognized agency. Candidates are interviewed and admitted by a screening committee according to the availability of space.

Atmosphere The atmosphere is homey and informal. Because numbers are small, the program for daily life comes naturally, much like that of a regular family. Residency at the Alpine House includes board and room, with each person alternately assisting with the dishes and other maintenance chores around

the home and yard.Fees

The Alpine House is partially subsidized by United Way. The primary goal is to assist each resident to become as self supporting and productive as possible. Therefore, a reasonable monthly charge is assessed each resident for board and room based on a sliding scale with no one paying over $500.00 a

month.Rules

The Alpine House rules are the rules of society. There are few regulations imposed by the board and staff. The House Parents live in the home and are responsible for the general operation and well-being of the home.

Phases of Treatment Treatment at Provo Canyon Behavioral Hospital May Involve These Four Phases:

o Evaluation and Assessment: Treatment begins with a comprehensive evaluation that becomes the foundation for an individual’s personal treatment plan. Intervention counseling for the patient and family to enable them to get the maximum benefit from the program. After an assessment a decision will be made about what type of treatment is most appropriate: inpatient or intensive outpatient. The therapist helps identify specific goals and interventions needed to address a patient’s specific needs.

o Rehabilitation: The main phase of treatment. It involves completion of the assessment and implementation of a Treatment Plan which generally includes group therapy, individual therapy, family therapy, and activity therapy. A daily schedule includes focused goal-setting, group therapy and educational groups in which individuals address the issues that have disrupted their lives. A patient may be assigned to a special program to deal with trauma resolution or even suicide intervention.

o Continuing Care: Provides individualized referrals to community programs in your area to maintain recovery.Dual Diagnosis

Sometimes addiction to alcohol or drugs is accompanied by a secondary, but significant, condition that may affect the positive outcome of treatment for alcohol other substances.

Some of the conditions that lead to a dual diagnosis (co-occurring disorders) include:o Depressiono Anxietyo Mood Instabilityo Post-traumatic stress

At Provo Canyon Behavioral Hospital, we know that chemical dependency is not a character deficiency or moral weakness. It is progressive, potentially fatal disease that has long-term emotional and physical impact on the individual and the whole family. When it is accompanied by other mental health problems, it is important to treat both. At least 30% of the people who recognize their alcohol and/or drug abuse also have emotional disorders. Addictive behaviors are more likely to continue unless these disorders are recognized and treated.

Provo Canyon Behavioral Hospital has decades of experience dealing with psychiatric illness and substance addictions. Our objective is to return an individual to his or her daily routine as soon as possible.

Utah Youth Village Business Phone: 801-272-9980 5800 South Highland DriveSalt Lake City, Utah 84121

As one of the largest private non-profit providers of residential treatment for children who are wards of the state, we shelter and provide treatment for over 300 children a year in ten Group Homes and 50 Treatment Foster Homes throughout Utah. We also provide Families First, our unique in-home program for families with troubled children, as well as Parenting for Success Classes for the public.

Through all of our programs, we reach into neighborhoods across the country, impacting well over 3,000 lives annually. Village children come from various backgrounds. Some children, from loving and supportive families, are experiencing a self-destructive, very troubled

period. Other children have never known a loving family. In fact, the majority of our children:o Are wards of the stateo Have been the victims of physical or sexual abuseo Have not succeeded in typical foster homes, wilderness programs, or psychiatric hospitalso Are years behind in schoolo Lack fundamental life skills

We teach our children how to listen, how to take "no" for an answer, how to relate without anger, and how to set and achieve goals. They learn how to succeed in school and in a family setting. Along the way, they learn that they are important and can live responsible lives. The skills we teach even follow them throughout their lives, eventually helping them to succeed in jobs, with their spouses, and with their own children.

Group Homes Utah Youth Village operates five Group Homes, three for teenage boys, one for latency-aged girls, and one for latency-aged boys. Our homes are

located along the Wasatch Front and are staffed with full-time married couples who live in each home. Youth attend public school, do chores, and work toward graduation. After graduation, most return to their families, or live with a Village foster family. If

they are 18, the Village prepares them for self-sufficiency. We teach the youth in our care to live in a normal, healthy family environment. They learn to overcome their chaotic backgrounds and to behave


801-229-1181

appropriately. In the end, their performance at school is improved, they become more mature, and they have the skills necessary to succeed at home, in school and on the job.

Five Group Homes Six to eight children per home Children range in age from 6 - 18 73% of our youth are able to move into less restrictive foster homes, their own homes, adoptive homes, or independent living School performance improves by an average of two full grades, from D's to B's Child's maturity level increases by five years in eight months of treatment (as measured by the Nowicki-Strickland Locus-of-Control test.) Treatment provided by a highly trained married couple with support from licensed clinical staff

Latency Age Homes In addition to our three group homes for teens, the Village also offeres residential treatment services for boys and girls between the ages of 6 and 12.

These homes are designed to provide treatment for younger children who are too troubled for foster care but need an alternative to psychiatric hospitalization. The only program of its kind in the state, we provide a highly structured, home-like setting that is uniquely suited to this younger population.

Youth Village Academy The Village provides a fully accredited junior and senior high school for the few Village youth who are unable to attend public school. Instructors are

also trained in the Teaching-Family Model so youth receive therapy throughout the day in addition to instruction in core curriculum subjects.Referring a Youth

Treatment Foster Homes Village Treatment Foster Homes are the least restrictive option among the range of residential services for severely emotionally disturbed children and

adolescents. In our Treatment Foster Homes, we combine the normalizing influence of family-based care with specialized treatment interventions, creating a therapeutic environment in the context of a nurturing family home.

Over 60 homes throughout Utah 79% of our children are adopted, returned home, or placed in less restrictive foster care One to two children per home Treatment provided by Treatment Parents, highly-trained married couples who care for children in their own homes Treatment parents are well-supported by trained supervisors Treatment parents trained to address specialized issues such as substance abuse, teen motherhood, sexual reactivity, independent living, mental illness

and aggressionRefugee Children

We partner with the United Nations High Commission for Refugees and Catholic Community Services to provide foster homes and families for refugee children from war-torn countries all over the world. These children have spent years in refugee camps, have not found their parents, and would be in peril if they were to return to their native countries. With our foster families, they live in a safe, predictable home where they can resume school, learn English and other skills to succeed either in America or, if conditions improve, in their native country.

Partnerships to Provide Stability Many Village children are able to return home after treatment, but others cannot. For these children, our highly trained Treatment Foster Parents

provide long-term care, often raising these children as their legal guardians or adoptive parents. We also partner with private agencies to provide long-term foster care and adoption.

The Village also provides services to adoptive parents and potential adoptive parents to help ensure that the adoption is successful. We provide this service regardless of whether the adopted child is a Village child. We customize our approach to meet the individual needs of our long-term children, providing them with treatment, security, and above all, a family through guardianship or adoption.

Independent Living Because many of our youth will be living independent of state or family support in their teens, Utah Youth Village has developed an extensive program

to teach these young people how to succeed on their own. Our training involves hands-on lessons on cooking, budgeting, renting, car ownership, shopping, and higher education.

Alpine Academy, founded in 2001, is a non-profit organization, owned by Utah Youth Village, founded in 1969. We are licensed as a residential treatment facility in the state of Utah and are certified as a non-public school.

Treatment takes place in a family-style environment, which increases opportunities to realize and teach to maladaptive behaviors. This multi-dimensional strategy is a catalyst providing a nurturing, individualized, and strength-based treatment environment.

Alpine Academy focuses on a therapeutically based family style environment, with an emphasis on individualized treatment for each girl and her family. In addition to an intensive therapeutic environment, we provide comprehensive academic services. These services are provided by an accredited private school with small class size, academic plans tailored to meet each student's needs, and a

challenging yet supportive curriculum. Students may have individualized education programs, such as student-specific study at the university level, and specialized educational programs as needed.

Our parent company, Utah Youth Village, is one of the largest and oldest charities in Utah helping troubled children. It is the only organization in Utah certified to use the Teaching-Family Model, perhaps the most thoroughly researched treatment method for troubled children and families in use today. Those trained in the Teaching-Family Model provide security and love while teaching consistency and respect.

Using this method, 82% of our girls are successful at implementing their new skills and stabilizing back at home, or in a step down placement.Program Details

Families First is an intensive in-home intervention designed to teach parents skills to change the behaviors of their troubled children. Please download the brochure by clicking above for an in-depth description, including research results.

The children in the families we serve have a variety of emotional and behavioral problems. Some have been diagnosed with mental illnesses, some are struggling with school behaviors, some are simply ungovernable, and others are reacting poorly to their dysfunctional family environments. Many families live at or below poverty level and are struggling to find jobs, housing, clothing, and food for their children.

How it Works A Families First Specialist goes into the home of a troubled family for 8-10 hours a week for six weeks. The Specialist becomes an ally of the parents and teaches them proven methods of changing a child's destructive behaviors. They are taught how to

maintain discipline without anger or violence. Positive communication skills are also taught, as well as how to effectively set and maintain boundaries. The Specialist uses positive reinforcement, modeling, role playing, and other methods that are designed specifically to teach lasting, concrete parenting

and communication skills.


801-229-1181

Even after concluding the six-week in-home period, the Specialist continues to be a part of the family's life by remaining on-call, 24 hours a day, for the next year. The Specialist also conducts evaluations at three-month intervals after the intervention to track success and to identify possible challenges on a case by case basis.

Families First is available to the public. Some insurance companies provide coverage. Payment is determined on a sliding scale. For more information, contact Wayne Arner at [email protected] or call him at (801) 272-9980.

Parent Leadership Committee Because of the belief we have in parents being the experts on their children and family, we have developed a "parent leadership committee" comprised

of parents who have successfully completed the Families First Program themselves. This group of parents now volunteers their time providing programmatic feedback, a parent's perspective in treatment interventions, as well as being available to answer specific questions a parent may have from someone who has "been in their shoes."

The ChainBreaker Foundation assists adult victims of all types of abuse–physical, sexual, spiritual, emotional, and verbal. Our purpose is to provide education, guidance, and support. To do this, the ChainBreaker Foundation provides free, educational classes every Tuesday night. These classes are taught by various professionals who

volunteer to come speak to us, including therapists, attorneys, physicians, judges, motivational speakers, and authors. Classes are taught on various subjects. Any adult, male or female, is welcome to attend. The material is usually not appropriate for children, however, teenagers often come with their parents.

We also have trained volunteers who guide victims to the resources in the community and through the court system if necessary. If a victim needs to go to court, volunteers will accompany them so they don’t have to go alone.

The volunteers are a guide, helping their clients find help by pulling from any resource they can, but they also are a friend. If a client just needs to vent, they can call their Chainbreakers mentor. The mentors are aware that many situations are dangerous and are very cautious and conscientious about talking to their clients.

Some of our other resources include a library of appropriate books, an opportunity to contribute to the community through humanitarian projects, and free clothing.

Free, educational classes are held Tuesday nights from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at 165 North 1330 West, Suite A-1, Orem, UT.

Divorce ProgramsDivorce education for children

While state law mandates divorce education for parents, children are rarely provided the opportunity to benefit from divorce counseling, education, or intervention.

Research has shown that children utilize minimal outside resource in their adjustment to parental divorce.Divorce education for adults

While divorcing parents have found value in being educated on ways to minimize the effects of divorce on children, resources beyond a brief education are minimal, or may be quite costly.

Given the extensive participation of extended family in the lives of children, divorce education can also be utilized by caretakers and other participants in the children’s lives.

Relationship Maintenance ProgramsNon-residential parent education

Attention is given to the unique problems associated with being unable to reside with one’s family. Education/counseling of non-residential parents aids in facilitating the children’s best interest by preventing a wearing down and subsequent loss of

important relationships to the child. A second, and extremely valuable purpose to this program, is the promotion of responsible parenthood through advocacy of consistent

contact/visitation, monetary support, and other forms of child support.

United Angels Foundation is a non-profit, parent-to-parent support group that focuses on helping parents and families adjust to the birth of a child with special needs or disabilities. As our name indicates, we view these children as Angels; and, as we support the parents and families of all children that have special needs or disabilities, we are the United Angels Foundation.

UAF supports parents of children with ALL disabilities and special needs. We believe in the concept of “uniting” parents who share a common bond no matter what the condition of their child may be. UAF parents have found

a tremendous benefit in sharing knowledge and information within a larger community and across various spectrums and conditions.


801-229-1181

Although Down Syndrome and Autism currently represent UAF’s largest demographic of Angels, other conditions include Cerebral Palsy, Spinal Bifida, Turner Syndrome, Aspergers Syndrome, unknown diagnoses, and other genetic conditions.

UAF provides condition specific activities and groups, while also providing their members with the benefits of a larger community and support network.UAF Programs and Services

UAF provides support to parents and families that have been blessed with an Angel of their own. This support includes Newborn visits, parent lunches, youth activities, community awareness programs, educational programs, and much more. One of our primary missions is to help families adjust to the birth of a child with disabilities. Although many of our activities provide recreation and fun for the Angels, the purpose is to bring these parents together in a spirit of unity and collaboration.

Rape, Abuse, & Incest National Networkhttps://www.rainn.org/get-help/national-sexual-assault-hotline

National Sexual Assault Hotline Toll-Free Hotline: 1-800-656-HOPE At any given moment, more than 1,100 trained volunteers are on duty and available to help victims at RAINN-affiliated crisis centers across the country. The concept behind the hotline is simple. When a caller dials 1.800.656.HOPE, a computer notes the area code and first three digits of the caller's

phone number. The call is then instantaneously connected to the nearest RAINN member center. If all counselors at that center are busy, the call is sent to the next closest center. The caller's phone number is not retained, so the call is anonymous and confidential unless the caller chooses to share personally-identifying information.

When RAINN was founded, we surveyed the directors of dozens of rape crisis centers and state and national anti-sexual assault organizations as well as many victims of sexual violence. The advice was unanimous: The best support services for rape, sexual assault and incest victims are those offered at community rape treatment centers.

Each local center is the best resource for victims in its community, not only for counseling but also for information about community resources and emergency protocols. In addition, because rape and sexual assault laws vary by state, local centers are in the best position to advise survivors on the legal aspects of the crime.

RAINN does not have any record of a caller's phone number or name. Callers always have the choice of whether or not to share their real name or phone number with counselors; they are never obligated to reveal this information. In other words, we will know who you are only if you choose to tell us.

If a caller is under age 18 and chooses to share personally-identifying information with the counselor, most states require the counselor to notify authorities of the sexual assault of a minor. Only in this situation — when a minor calls and chooses to reveal identifying information — does the pledge of confidentiality not apply.

While almost all callers are connected directly to a counselor, a handful of our local affiliates use an answering service after regular business hours. In these cases, callers may choose to leave a phone number with the answering service, in which case the number will be confidential and will be given


801-229-1181

directly to a counselor to call back. Or, callers may choose to call back during business hours, when they will be connected directly.

person.Day Services

welfare of the individual, or enable the individual to function with greater independence in the home.

encourage the students to save their own money to pay their way.

Mission Statement Alpine Transition and Education Center encompasses a supportive, educational environment designed to transition students to the adult world through

the development of personal skills and abilities. Instruction and activities are designed to guide students towards independence and participation in the


801-229-1181

community. Students will learn to navigate through life by working and socializing in the community as productive, contributing members of society.Program Descriptions

Alpine Transition and Education Center is designed to provide students a continuum of services tailored to meet individual needs. All programs focus on the four main areas of transition: Education and Training, Jobs, Personal Life, and Living on Your Own.

Life Skills: Students attending the Life Skills class are taught the skills to increase their independence in their home and community. The program focuses on teaching a variety of academic, social, and functional living skills related to the four transition areas. The curriculum and employment activities are customized according to each student’s individual interests and needs.

Independent Living: The Independent Living program is designed to offer students a combination of classroom experience and exposure to a variety of work training sites in the community. Classroom instruction focuses on teaching the work skills and behavior necessary to obtain and maintain employment. ATEC has partnered with many local businesses to provide small-group training to students in the community. Under the direct supervision of a job coach, students work in small groups to generalize the classroom skills to real life situations.

Access: Students attending Access are ready to increase their ability to access the community with the fading support of ATEC staff and the increasing support of their peers and natural community supports. Student schedules are individualized based on their interests and work preferences. Working with the teacher, students will focus attention on developing IEP Goals, self-advocacy, academics, employable skills, social skills, and community access. With job coach support, the student will find a volunteer job in the community and will learn the needed skills to complete the job with the support of another peer. Job coach support will fade as the student increases their independence at the job site.

Outreach: The Outreach program is designed to provide education and support for students in their community instead of in the traditional classroom setting. Students have a modified education schedule tailored to the student’s post-school goals, dreams, and wishes for their future. The program is designed to phase the student out of the traditional school-based schedule and into following a “life schedule” that will continue into adulthood. Students develop a person-centered plan and are taught to advocate for themselves by developing, writing, and leading their own IEP. Students must be able to be alone safely. If a student is not able to be alone safely, the student’s family is responsible to arrange supervision for the student. All students attending the Outreach program must be employed or be willing to seek employment, volunteer work, or participate in an internship. Students will also learn to use public transportation to access school, the community, and their work placement.

Clients at the clinic receive an Individualized Development Plan (IDP). The IDP is designed to serve as the compass for your autism journey. Within the IDP are individual journeys (objectives) each with individualized, specific destinations (goals).Journey areas may include:

o Joint Attention Skillso Communication & Social Skillso Emotional Regulation & Behavioro Learning & Academicso Sensory Processingo Self-Help & Safetyo Home & Community

Each destination is created with input from each member of the IDP team, including our autism specialist, speech-language pathologist, occupational therapist, licensed clinical therapist, psychologist and the parents. This collaborative approach helps ensure all areas of development are being addressed.

The IDP is created within the second month of treatment, allowing the providers to evaluate strengths and weaknesses and establish a positive relationship with the individual prior to determining specific goals.

You, Me, We, Just Be You, Me, We, Just Be™ (UMWB) is a program developed by Autism Journeys to promote positive child-provider relationships and guide individual and

group treatment sessions.


801-229-1181

The UMWB model serves as a roadmap for implementing the IDP and helps ensure a multi-faceted treatment plan is implemented. You (U) - A relationship based treatment, where the individual directs the interaction and determines the activity. DIR™(FloorTime) and PLAY Project

are commonly used approaches during this time. U treatment is critical in developing a positive, trusting and healthy relationship between the individual and provider.

ME (M) - Treatment directed by the provider. Providers will use a variety of treatment methods during this time depending on the clients IDP. Methods may include:

o Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)-Verbal Behavior Modification, Discrete Trial, etc.o Developmental, Individual differences, Relationship-based approach (DIR)™ also known as FloorTime www.floortime.orgo Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS)™ www.pecs.como Social Behavioral Thinking™ www.socialthinking.como Social Stories™ & Comic Strip Conversations™ www.greycenter.orgo Treatment and Education of Autistic and Communication- related handicapped CHildren TEACCH™ www.TEACCH.com

WE (W) -Treatment guided through collaboration between the provider and individual. The provider chooses 2-3 activities representing goals in the IDP. The individual then chooses which activity they prefer to engage in.

Just BE (B) - This is essentially a break for the individual in treatment. They are free to do whatever they choose provided it’s safe and non-intrusive to others. This provides an opportunity for parents and providers to observe carry over from sessions and determine future goals. This time is also when the provider and parents can engage in parent coaching. The parent coaching aspect of our approach allows families to learn skills and techniques to work with their child on their own, leading to a long-term decrease in time, money, and frustration.

Monitoring Progress To ensure accurate treatment, we strongly believe in monitoring and documenting each client’s progress. All clinic sessions are documented and

provided to each team member for review. Written monthly reviews and six-month meetings are held with families to enable the entire team to meet and discuss individual journeys and destinations. Parents are often provided documenting materials to track their child’s progress at home. Finally, video monitoring and feedback is available for home and center use when needed.

Camp Kesem is a college student-run summer camp for children ages 6-16 with a parent who has cancer. For a full week in the summer, volunteers help organize and run camp activities (sports, drama, arts and crafts, and other outdoor mini adventures).

Camp activities include sports, arts and crafts, and drama to give campers a fun-filled week. Campers also participate in “cabin chats” with fellow campers and counselors, giving children the chance to share with each other their experiences

coping with a parent’s cancer. There are plenty of laughs and lots of emotional support, although no formal therapy is offered/permitted. The tremendous fun and peer-support campers experience is what makes Camp Kesem a transformative, magical week for campers and counselors

alike.Conexiones

Paint a Wish Volunteers teach simple art techniques to children with major health problems, either one-on-one or with a group, on a weekly basis. Volunteers

provide friendship and a creative outlet for these precious children through their unique trials.

United Angels Foundation Business Phone: 801-900-4125 [email protected] United Angels Foundation1411 W. 1250 S. Suite 310Orem, Utah 84058

United Angels Foundation is a non-profit, parent-to-parent support group that focuses on helping parents and families adjust to the birth of a child with special needs or disabilities. As our name indicates, we view these children as Angels; and, as we support the parents and families of all children that have special needs or disabilities, we are the United Angels Foundation.

UAF supports parents of children with ALL disabilities and special needs. We believe in the concept of “uniting” parents who share a common bond no matter what the condition of their child may be. UAF parents have found

a tremendous benefit in sharing knowledge and information within a larger community and across various spectrums and conditions. Although Down Syndrome and Autism currently represent UAF’s largest demographic of Angels, other conditions include Cerebral Palsy, Spinal Bifida,

Turner Syndrome, Aspergers Syndrome, unknown diagnoses, and other genetic conditions. UAF provides condition specific activities and groups, while also providing their members with the benefits of a larger community and support network.

UAF Programs and Services UAF provides support to parents and families that have been blessed with an Angel of their own. This support includes Newborn visits, parent lunches,

youth activities, community awareness programs, educational programs, and much more. One of our primary missions is to help families adjust to the birth of a child with disabilities. Although many of our activities provide recreation and fun for the Angels, the purpose is to bring these parents together in a spirit of unity and collaboration.

Mainstreamers Toastmasters Club Business Phone: 801-225-4902 Baptist Church building 1144 Columbia Lane Provo, UT 84604 United States

A Toastmasters meeting is very structured and we strive to begin and end on time. The meeting is organized into three main parts:

1. Prepared SpeechesEach member works on different aspects of their speaking skills by working on a speech project from a speech manual. The different aspects range from body language and vocal variety to inspiring or using humor in speech. Most speeches range from 5-7 minutes, while some advanced projects require 10-15 minutes.

2. Table TopicsThis is an opportunity for members to learn to speak extemporaneously. A person, called the Table Topics Master, will call someone up to the lectern and give them a topic to discuss with no preparation. These speeches only last from 1-2 minutes, but are a valuable exercise to learn to think on your feet.

3. EvaluationsOne person is assigned to be an evaluator for each speaker. They provide valuable feedback on the things the speaker did well and where they can improve. The evaluation is geared specifically to the goals of the individual speech project, but also include a more general evaluation of the speech as well. This is one of the most important parts of the meeting because it provides the feedback a speaker needs to improve, but it also teaches the evaluator to critically examine a speech and provide feedback in a way that motivates people to improve their skills.

Toastmasters meetings provide a fun and supportive learning environment where everyone is there to help one another improve. Many people call it the best hour of their week.

Mission People Helping People is dedicated to reducing the number of children living in poverty by teaching low-income women, primarily single mothers, how

to earn an adequate income through stable employment that pays a living wage. Results

Each year People Helping People asks graduates to participate in a survey measuring their employment status. Last year, graduates reported that: 92% were employed full-time, 59% were with the same employer for more than 3 years, 60% received at least one raise with an average of $1.30 per hour, 93% have health insurance offered through their employer, 40% received employee of the month or other employment recognition, and 40% completed or were enrolled in programs to further their education or training. Program completion and survey statistics are summarized in our annual report, published in August.

Target demographics Low-income women and single mothers

Direct beneficiaries per year Raised awareness to 5000+ people, 546 participated in our education workshops, recruited 60+ volunteers.

Geographic areas served Salt Lake, Weber, Davis and Utah counties in Utah

Programs Education program: our program gives low-income women the tools, knowledge, and self-confidence necessary to compete for better jobs, seek raises,

promotions, and eventually earn an adequate income. Each single mom we help transition from welfare to adequate income saves our community between $5,000 and $20,000 annually.

Medical Assistance ProgramsTraditional and Non-Traditional Medicaid

Members eligible for Traditional Medicaid includes:1. Children2. Pregnant Women3. Aged, Blind or Disabled Adults4. Women eligible under the Cancer Program

Some services are available only to children and to pregnant women under Traditional Medicaid. If a parent is a minor child and is the head-of-household on Family Medicaid, the minor parent will be covered by Traditional Medicaid.

Non-Traditional Medicaid: Members eligible for Non-Traditional Medicaid includes:

1. Adults on Family Medicaid programs (adults with dependent children)2. Adult care-taker relatives on Family Medicaid

Services are based on the program type a person is eligible to receive.Spenddown Program (Medically Needy)

Some people applying for Medicaid meet all conditions to qualify, except their monthly income is more than the Medicaid limit. In this case, the eligibility worker will determine if the person can qualify for the Medicaid Medically Needy program. The program is also referred to as the “spenddown” program. Not all Medicaid programs allow spenddown.

To qualify for Medicaid, the person agrees to “spend down” his or her monthly income to the Medicaid income standard. The person has a choice of how to pay the amount above the Medicaid income limit. The person may choose to either pay “excess” monthly income to the state or to pay a medical provider for one or more medical bills. The member signs a Medicaid form that states the amount owed. Then the medical provider is notified of the patient’s agreement to pay medical bills.

If your income is over the allowable limit to be eligible for Medicaid, you may be able to spenddown. Contact a DWS eligibility worker for information about spending down.

Medicaid Long-Term Care and Waiver Programs Some people with special needs may qualify for Medicaid through waiver programs. In order for Medicaid to pay for long-term care, applicants must be financially and medically eligible. The individual may enter a medical facility such as a nursing home, or may be able to receive care in his or her own home under one of the home and

community based waivers. Space is limited in home and community based waivers and may not be available in all areas. Waivers allow Medicaid to pay for support and services

that help people live safely in their own homes or the community. Each program has specific requirements and benefits.Autism Waiver Program

Assist children age 2 through 6 who have been diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) The waiver provides in-home services using treatment methods that have been proven to be effective for children with ASD


801-229-1181

Approximately 290 children will be served by the Medicaid Autism Waiver each year Openings on the waiver are distributed based on geographical areas within the state using population figures from the 2010 US Census (ex. If an area

contains 10% of the state population, it will receive 10% of the waiver openings.)Buyout Program

If you are a person with current Medicaid eligibility, available insurance, and a serious medical need, your case may be reviewed for the Buyout Program. The Buyout Program is a Utah Medicaid program that purchases established health insurance for Medicaid members. Any Medicaid (Traditional and Non-Traditional) recipient who has a significant medical need and available insurance that would cover the cost of that

need may be referred to the Buyout Program. In order for a member to be enrolled in the Buyout Program, Medicaid Buyout staff must find that enrollment would be cost-effective for the state.

Most insurance plans are eligible, including but not limited to employer-based group insurance, individual plans, student health plans, etc. The primary considerations are eligibility for Medicaid, the medical need, the coverage offered under the policy, and the cost-effectiveness of the Buyout

purchase. The Buyout Program should not be confused with other programs such as UPP, ARRA, or Buy-in (Medicare Premiums Assistance).Children's Health Insurance Program

The Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) is a state health insurance plan for children who do not have other insurance. It provides well-child exams, immunizations, doctor visits, hospital, emergency care, prescriptions, hearing and eye exams, mental health services and

Well-Child Care Your child should visit the doctor for well-child health care because their growing bodies are changing so quickly. Well-child visits allow the doctor to

check your child's growth and development. If there is a problem, the doctor can find it before it becomes more serious. The doctor can tell you about what to expect and answer questions about your child's health. Your doctor can also give you advice on health and safety issues. Well-child care is important for you and your child.

The CHEC program will help you get the well-child care your child needs. You will be contacted when you child is due for a well-child visit. You may receive a telephone call or information in the mail. You can get help scheduling and getting to the appointment. You will also be contacted if the doctor says your child needs additional care.

Expanded Services If your doctor feels your child needs extra care, your child may receive the care even if it is not a Medicaid benefit. Any added care your child needs that

is medically necessary can be covered by Medicaid through the CHEC program. Children ages 19-20 on Non-Traditional Medicaid do not qualify for CHEC benefits.

Medicare is a health insurance program for: people age 65 or older, people under age 65 with certain disabilities, and people of all ages with End-Stage Renal Disease (permanent kidney failure requiring dialysis or a kidney transplant).Part A Hospital Insurance Most people don't pay a premium for Part A because they or a spouse already paid for it through their payroll taxes while working. Medicare Part A

(Hospital Insurance) helps cover inpatient care in hospitals, including critical access hospitals, and skilled nursing facilities (not custodial or long-term care). It also helps cover hospice care and some home health care. Beneficiaries must meet certain conditions to get these benefits.

Part B Medical Insurance Most people pay a monthly premium for Part B. Medicare Part B (Medical Insurance) helps cover doctors' services and outpatient care. It also covers


801-229-1181

some other medical services that Part A doesn't cover, such as some of the services of physical and occupational therapists, and some home health care. Part B helps pay for these covered services and supplies when they are medically necessary.

Prescription Drug Coverage Most people will pay a monthly premium for this coverage. Starting January 1, 2006, new Medicare prescription drug coverage will be available to

everyone with Medicare. Everyone with Medicare can get this coverage that may help lower prescription drug costs and help protect against higher costs in the future. Medicare Prescription Drug Coverage is insurance. Private companies provide the coverage. Beneficiaries choose the drug plan and pay a monthly premium. Like other insurance, if a beneficiary decides not to enroll in a drug plan when they are first eligible, they may pay a penalty if they choose to join later.

Medicare beneficiaries can qualify for Extra Help with their Medicare prescription drug plan costs. The Extra Help is estimated to be worth about $4,000 per year. To qualify for the Extra Help, a person must be receiving Medicare, have limited resources and income, and reside in one of the 50 States or the District of Columbia.

How can I sign up for Part A & Part B? Apply online at Social Security. Visit your local Social Security office. Call Social Security at 1-800-772-1213. TTY users should call 1-800-325-0778.

Pregnancy Risk Linehttp://health.utah.gov/prl/

Pregnancy Risk Line 1-800-822-BABY (2229)The Pregnancy Risk Line provides valuable information to women who are pregnant, considering becoming pregnant, or breastfeeding, and to their healthcare providers.

This free, private, and easy-to-use telephone information service answers questions about medicines, drugs, chemicals, and other environmental exposures that can potentially harm an embryo, fetus, or infant.

The Pregnancy Risk Line also answers questions about the flu and flu vaccines. The purpose of the Pregnancy Risk Line is to offer accurate, timely, and confidential information that will help you avoid problems caused by:

o Medications you have recently taken or are currently takingo Chemicals you may be exposed too Other potentially dangerous products or exposures

You will talk to a staff member knowledgeable about medicines, chemicals and other exposures that can cause pregnancy problems or birth defects. The Pregnancy RiskLine staff also advises women and their health care providers about the effects of exposures on the breastfed baby and the possible

impact on breast milk production.The staff will ask some questions to understand your situation:

Are you pregnant or breastfeeding? How many weeks pregnant are you? or How old is your baby? What medications, substances, or exposures do you want to know about? What other health issues do you have? or Do you have high blood pressure? If you are asking about a medication, please have it with you and be ready to spell the name of the medication.The Pregnancy Risk Line tries to get its phone number to as many women as possible and we want to know what ways work the best. So, you will be asked two questions near the end of the call. What is your zip code (or state if you are calling from outside of Utah)? Where did you get our number? or How did you hear about us?

The Pregnancy Risk Line is a joint effort of the Utah Department of Health and the University of Utah Health Sciences Center. The Risk Line has been providing pregnancy information and education to women, families, and health care providers for more than twenty-five years. Teratology specialists and university faculty from the schools of pharmacy and medicine review the latest research to give callers the most accurate information about exposures during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Guardian Ad Litem Provo Business Phone: 801-344-8516 32 West Center StreetProvo, UT 84601

Office of Guardian ad Litem The Office of Guardian ad Litem provides attorneys to represent the best interests of children and teens in cases of alleged abuse, neglect, and

dependency in the juvenile courts. Sometimes those young people are in foster care, but most often they are able to safely remain at home while the family engages in court-ordered services designed to resolve the circumstances that gave rise to state intervention.

The Office performs this service with more than 40 lawyers, trained in this unique and highly specialized area of the law, together with dedicated support staff and a pool of trained citizen volunteers who serve as Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA).

In addition to the GAL attorneys employed by the State, the GAL Office also trains and certifies local attorneys to work in the Private Guardian ad Litem program (PGAL). PGAL attorneys work in district court high-conflict cases involving issues of custody and visitation, and where there may be allegations of abuse or neglect of a child.

In court cases where a family is in crisis, and where children are being mistreated or are not receiving proper care, there is no one with more at stake

Alpine Transition and Education Centerhttp://atec.alpineschools.org/

Alpine Transition and Education Center

Business Phone: 801-610-8186 Fax: 801-785-8790 350 N. State StLindon, UT 84042

Mission Statement Alpine Transition and Education Center encompasses a supportive, educational environment designed to transition students to the adult world through

the development of personal skills and abilities. Instruction and activities are designed to guide students towards independence and participation in the community. Students will learn to navigate through life by working and socializing in the community as productive, contributing members of society.

Program Descriptions Alpine Transition and Education Center is designed to provide students a continuum of services tailored to meet individual needs. All programs focus on

the four main areas of transition: Education and Training, Jobs, Personal Life, and Living on Your Own. Life Skills: Students attending the Life Skills class are taught the skills to increase their independence in their home and community. The program

focuses on teaching a variety of academic, social, and functional living skills related to the four transition areas. The curriculum and employment activities are customized according to each student’s individual interests and needs.

Independent Living: The Independent Living program is designed to offer students a combination of classroom experience and exposure to a variety of work training sites in the community. Classroom instruction focuses on teaching the work skills and behavior necessary to obtain and maintain employment. ATEC has partnered with many local businesses to provide small-group training to students in the community. Under the direct


801-229-1181

supervision of a job coach, students work in small groups to generalize the classroom skills to real life situations. Access: Students attending Access are ready to increase their ability to access the community with the fading support of ATEC staff and the increasing

support of their peers and natural community supports. Student schedules are individualized based on their interests and work preferences. Working with the teacher, students will focus attention on developing IEP Goals, self-advocacy, academics, employable skills, social skills, and community access. With job coach support, the student will find a volunteer job in the community and will learn the needed skills to complete the job with the support of another peer. Job coach support will fade as the student increases their independence at the job site.

Outreach: The Outreach program is designed to provide education and support for students in their community instead of in the traditional classroom setting. Students have a modified education schedule tailored to the student’s post-school goals, dreams, and wishes for their future. The program is designed to phase the student out of the traditional school-based schedule and into following a “life schedule” that will continue into adulthood. Students develop a person-centered plan and are taught to advocate for themselves by developing, writing, and leading their own IEP. Students must be able to be alone safely. If a student is not able to be alone safely, the student’s family is responsible to arrange supervision for the student. All students attending the Outreach program must be employed or be willing to seek employment, volunteer work, or participate in an internship. Students will also learn to use public transportation to access school, the community, and their work placement.

School Rules And Policies All students attending ATEC are required to adhere to the school rules and basic school policies:

o No electronic use on campus (cell phone, gaming devices, etc.)o Stay in assigned areas.o Use awesome languageo Follow directions (the first time they are given)o Keep hands and feet to themselves

o Open toed shoes or sandalso Tank tops and shirts with spaghetti strapso Bare midriff, belly shirts, or low cut collared shirtso Short shorts or short skirtso Torn or ripped clothingo Display of undergarmentso In addition, students will be expected to adhere to the clothing requirements specific to their job assignment. For example, if a student is

volunteering at Chili’s and the required dress is a black shirt and jeans, students will need to obtain a black shirt and a pair of jeans to change into when it is time for work. Please talk with your assigned teacher to determine the work placement for your student and the clothing requirements.

Consequences


801-229-1181

ATEC operates on a positive reinforcement policy. Students may earn rewards specific to each teacher’s reinforcement procedures. Students who choose not to meet expectations and follow classroom or school rules are subject to the following consequences:

o Verbal warningo Change in seatingo Loss of opportunitieso Loss of desirable activityo One-on-one meeting with teachero Change of work environmento Parent phone callo Meeting with the principal

Parents will be contacted in the cases of serious disruptive behavior or infraction. If the problem persists, consultation with the parents, student, teacher, and administrator will be necessary.

School Hours ATEC follows the Alpine School District A/B Calendar. School hours are Monday, 8:00am to 1:00pm and Tuesday through Friday, 8:00am to 2:00pm.

Attendance And Tardies Good attendance and punctuality are critical work skills needed to be successful in a community work placement. Students are expected to be to their

assigned areas on time. Students are expected to call if they will be absent or tardy.Check In / Check Out

Students leaving campus for purposes un-related to school or school activities, need to check out with the front office. In addition, if a student arrives late to school, parents or a responsible adult need to physically accompany students to the front desk and check them in.

Visitors All visitors must check in at the front office and receive a visitor’s badge. If parents have requested outside agencies to visit students during school

hours, a permission form must be on file before visitors will be allowed into the classroom or worksite.Transportation

Students will be transported to various community locations depending on their classroom activities or job assignments. Transportation is provided by a combination of district bussing, ATEC vehicles, and public transportation (UTA). In emergency situation, ATEC staff may provide transportation in their own vehicle when no other transportation is available.

Lunch Students will need to bring a daily sack lunch. Microwaves are available, but students will not have access to refrigeration. Insulated lunch boxes are

recommended to keep food at a safe temperature. On Tuesday and Thursday, students have an opportunity to purchase lunch for $3 from the student café. If you are interested in purchasing a punch pass, please contact the front desk.

Money Management ATEC staff will provide students with training on how to make purchases, budget, and balance their money. However, the student will be responsible

for how their money is spent and accounted for. ATEC programs and staff will not have student money in their possessions.


801-229-1181

Evaluation Procedures Of Student Progress Students will be formally evaluated on IEP goals and worksite skills once per quarter. Evaluations will be sent home with the students, mailed home, or

sent to the referring school. No letter grades are given.Parent And Student Communication

Parents are encouraged to be active participants in your student’s education here at ATEC. Parents are welcome to contact ATEC with any questions or concerns about their students. Daily communication books are encouraged if your student is unable to communicate with you about classroom event and activities. In compliance with the American with Disabilities Act, students needing special accommodations may contact the teacher for alternative arrangements to fit individual needs.







Our Adoption Respite program assists parents who have adopted children that struggle with attachment and bonding issues.Parenting

Based on Love, Limits and Latitude, this program is offered in homes as well as traditional classes. The traditional 10 week, group course is offered several times each year. In rural communities or areas where resources are limited, the “in-home” parenting program has been particularly beneficial. Please call for a current schedule or for more information. (These services are available in Utah, Wasatch, Summit, Millard and Juab counties.)

Prevention Education The Prevention Education program provides presentations for preschoolers all the way up to seniors in high school on how they can fight their own

abuse or get help if they have been a victim. This free service hopes to prevent the occurrence of child abuse and neglect by heightening awareness of the dynamics of abuse and enhancing personal safety skills. By providing students with information about abuse and subsequent personal safety skills, children will be more empowered to help themselves (or to seek help) if the need arises.

All material taught in these lessons are age-appropriate and approved by Nebo, Provo, and Alpine School Districts.

Early Childhood is a critical time for children to develop the physical, emotional, social, and cognitive skills they will need to be successful in school and the rest of their lives.

The Mountainland Head Start program is based on the premise that all children share certain needs, and that children from low-income families, in particular, can benefit from a high quality program to meet those needs. Mountainland Head Start is a comprehensive child-centered, family-oriented, and community-based program with the mission to:

o Assist children in achieving their optimal developmentalo Support parents and families in achieving their goalso Partner with other community agencies in serving children and families

Mountainland Head Start's philosophy and goals rest on these basic principles A child can benefit most from a quality comprehensive, interdisciplinary program to foster optimum development. The well-being of children is inextricably linked to the well-being of the entire family. Parents are the primary educators of their children and as such, must be involved with their children's education including involvement with the Head

Start program. Partnerships with other agencies and organizations in the community are essential to meeting family needs.

Child Development Education: Head Start is the Right Start Among preschoolers, vocabulary, letter knowledge, and phonological awareness, in addition to social and emotional factors, have a significant impact

on later success in school. Our work focuses on assisting children become equipped with the basic skills necessary so that they begin school ready to learn.

Our approach is developmentally appropriate for preschoolers as well as culturally sensitive. Because we respect and support parents as a child's first teachers, we also recognize that children enjoy and benefit from experiences both at home and in the classroom; therefore, we provide guidance and instruction for both of these environments. Our highly-trained and educated staff works to appropriately meet the needs of the children so that they build trust and develop emotional security while preparing to become lifelong learners in a safe and enriching environment. The Head Start curriculum at Mountainland Head Start, Inc. promotes:

least 10% of our enrollment are children with disabilities, and Head Start has proven to be an excellent placement for their growth and development. Our staff are trained to accept each child regardless of physical, emotional, or intellectual difficulties. We believe our Head Start classroom is the ideal

place for children with disabilities to begin to socialize with their peers in a setting of acceptance and inclusion. Children with disabilities receive the full range of services offered to all Head Start Children including:

exams and treatment, and nutritional services. We promote the development of a healthy body and mind. Our goal is to ensure that every child is properly immunized, has dental and physical exams performed, and that all necessary follow-up is completed.

This is a continual process throughout the year. We encourage and support families all along the way, assisting them in obtaining the proper medical care and in following medical recommendations.

Health Services Our agency conducts various medical screenings such as vision, hearing, anemia, and height and weight measurements in order to identify and address

all potential health concerns. The Health Screenings consent form can be downloaded below.Medications

If your child is enrolled and has a need to take medications during the school day, a written statement from the doctor is needed. You will also need to complete an authorization to administer Medication Form. The form can be downloaded below.

Nutrition Services At Head Start, nutrition is part of each child’s learning and will take place throughout the day. We serve nutritious, unprocessed, safe foods prepared in

kitchens that are inspected by and comply with County Health Department regulations. Head Start centers participate in the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) or in the National School Lunch Program. If your child attends a morning class, he/she will be served breakfast and lunch. If your child attends Head Start during the afternoon, he/she will be

served lunch upon arrival and a snack. A Special Meal Plan will be developed if your child has special dietary needs. Our goal is to have the Special Meal Accommodation in place prior to your

child attending class. In order for that to happen, we ask that you share your child’s needs right away and obtain documentation from your child’s doctor noting the allergy/intolerance and appropriate substitution. Your child may not attend class until the doctor statement is received and the special meal accommodation plan is completed.

Mental Health We seek to identify and address mental health concerns in the early childhood period, as well as to promote mental health among all Head Start

children. The Mental Health portion of the program focuses on aiding the development of positive self-worth, self-regulation, respect for individual differences,

and appropriate social skills. Accomplishments in these areas will affect a child's ability to play, love, learn, and work within the home, school, and other environments. All fit

together to form the foundation of a mentally healthy person.Family Services

Research supports the essential role the family plays in children’s healthy development and academic success. The data indicates that children do better in school if their parents are knowledgeable, encouraging, and involved in their children’s education.

Mountainland Head Start, Inc. Family Service staff works to promote, the notion that children’s success is inextricably connected to the strength and resourcefulness of their families.

A primary objective of family services is to help families be advocates for their children and become self-sufficient. Social service support is provided to the families of all enrolled children.

Our Family Advocates assist parents to meet their needs through education, advocacy and referral. Social service staff help families assess family needs, develop strategies to meet those needs, access resources, and solve problems. Our Family Advocates help families find work opportunities, housing, child care, food stamps, literacy and ESL classes, WIC, HEAT, and numerous other community services. It is our goal to link families to other agencies who will help them live more comfortable and less stressful lives.

Family Advocates make regular home visits to provide parents with information on key issues for the family, and support them in the family partnership process of setting and achieving goals.

Autism Journeys has established an approach encompassing a wide range of scientifically studied methods. Multi-faceted approach is individualized for each client. Clients at the clinic receive an Individualized Development Plan (IDP). The IDP is designed to serve as the compass for your autism journey. Within the IDP are individual journeys (objectives) each with individualized, specific destinations (goals).Journey areas may include:

o Joint Attention Skillso Communication & Social Skillso Emotional Regulation & Behavioro Learning & Academicso Sensory Processingo Self-Help & Safetyo Home & Community

Each destination is created with input from each member of the IDP team, including our autism specialist, speech-language pathologist, occupational therapist, licensed clinical therapist, psychologist and the parents. This collaborative approach helps ensure all areas of development are being addressed.

The IDP is created within the second month of treatment, allowing the providers to evaluate strengths and weaknesses and establish a positive relationship with the individual prior to determining specific goals.

You, Me, We, Just Be You, Me, We, Just Be™ (UMWB) is a program developed by Autism Journeys to promote positive child-provider relationships and guide individual and

group treatment sessions. The UMWB model serves as a roadmap for implementing the IDP and helps ensure a multi-faceted treatment plan is implemented. You (U) - A relationship based treatment, where the individual directs the interaction and determines the activity. DIR™(FloorTime) and PLAY Project

are commonly used approaches during this time. U treatment is critical in developing a positive, trusting and healthy relationship between the


801-229-1181

individual and provider. ME (M) - Treatment directed by the provider. Providers will use a variety of treatment methods during this time depending on the clients IDP. Methods may include:

o Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)-Verbal Behavior Modification, Discrete Trial, etc.o Developmental, Individual differences, Relationship-based approach (DIR)™ also known as FloorTime www.floortime.orgo Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS)™ www.pecs.como Social Behavioral Thinking™ www.socialthinking.como Social Stories™ & Comic Strip Conversations™ www.greycenter.orgo Treatment and Education of Autistic and Communication- related handicapped CHildren TEACCH™ www.TEACCH.com

WE (W) -Treatment guided through collaboration between the provider and individual. The provider chooses 2-3 activities representing goals in the IDP. The individual then chooses which activity they prefer to engage in.

Just BE (B) - This is essentially a break for the individual in treatment. They are free to do whatever they choose provided it’s safe and non-intrusive to others. This provides an opportunity for parents and providers to observe carry over from sessions and determine future goals. This time is also when the provider and parents can engage in parent coaching. The parent coaching aspect of our approach allows families to learn skills and techniques to work with their child on their own, leading to a long-term decrease in time, money, and frustration.

Monitoring Progress To ensure accurate treatment, we strongly believe in monitoring and documenting each client’s progress. All clinic sessions are documented and

provided to each team member for review. Written monthly reviews and six-month meetings are held with families to enable the entire team to meet and discuss individual journeys and destinations.

Local Association Members recognize that many students in our schools are struggling. Some live without the basic necessities of food, clothing, and shelter despite the availability of social assistance programs. Alpine, Nebo, and Provo Association Members have joined with the United Way and community groups to serve Utah County children. Children in school classrooms who need glasses, shoes, clothing, winter coats, or medical needs can receive these items through the Kids Cause

coordinator at their school. Schools in Utah County have selected a Kids Cause coordinator who works with the principal, staff, and parents to meet student needs. Teachers have

direct contact with their students and can recognize issues that deter students from learning and participating in the classroom. Kids Cause works to ensure that the physical, social and emotional needs of the students will not stand in the way of success in the school setting.

Pregnancy Risk Linehttp://health.utah.gov/prl/

Pregnancy Risk Line 1-800-822-BABY (2229)The Pregnancy Risk Line provides valuable information to women who are pregnant, considering becoming pregnant, or breastfeeding, and to their healthcare providers.

This free, private, and easy-to-use telephone information service answers questions about medicines, drugs, chemicals, and other environmental exposures that can potentially harm an embryo, fetus, or infant.

The Pregnancy Risk Line also answers questions about the flu and flu vaccines. The purpose of the Pregnancy Risk Line is to offer accurate, timely, and confidential information that will help you avoid problems caused by:

o Medications you have recently taken or are currently takingo Chemicals you may be exposed too Other potentially dangerous products or exposures

You will talk to a staff member knowledgeable about medicines, chemicals and other exposures that can cause pregnancy problems or birth defects. The Pregnancy RiskLine staff also advises women and their health care providers about the effects of exposures on the breastfed baby and the possible

impact on breast milk production.The staff will ask some questions to understand your situation:

Are you pregnant or breastfeeding? How many weeks pregnant are you? or How old is your baby? What medications, substances, or exposures do you want to know about? What other health issues do you have? or Do you have high blood pressure? If you are asking about a medication, please have it with you and be ready to spell the name of the medication.The Pregnancy Risk Line tries to get its phone number to as many women as possible and we want to know what ways work the best. So, you will be asked two questions near the end of the call. What is your zip code (or state if you are calling from outside of Utah)? Where did you get our number? or How did you hear about us?

The Pregnancy Risk Line is a joint effort of the Utah Department of Health and the University of Utah Health Sciences Center. The Risk Line has been providing pregnancy information and education to women, families, and health care providers for more than twenty-five years. Teratology specialists and university faculty from the schools of pharmacy and medicine review the latest research to give callers the most accurate information about exposures during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

productive lives as members of the community. We accomplish our mission by providing accurate information, empathetic peer support, valuable training and effective advocacy based on the concept

of parents helping parents.* *The term parent is broadly defined to include anyone serving in that role.

Staff Staff of the UPC are primarily parents of children with disabilities. Each of them have a child of varying ages with different disabilities. Their unique

perspective of being a parent themselves allows them an opportunity to provide real-life experiences and positive lessons learned. Our staff helps parents and professionals through:

o Toll-free telephone access to the Center and trained parents (Parent Consultants) who provide information, support and referrals.o Workshops and presentations on a variety of topics related to special education, health and other issues pertinent to the needs of families.o An online calendar of events.o Online training resources, such as video modules, webinars and print resources.o An annual conference attended by hundreds of parents and professionals.o An electronic newsletter (e-Connections) which contains the latest information and updates (some availability in print for families who require

represent families in many systems level activities. UPC staff has built collaborative networks with education, health and human service professionals, agencies and organizations. The Center promotes

change within community through various projects and activities. Located in Salt Lake City, the Center serves families across Utah. The UPC is founded on the philosophy that parents are full partners in the decision-making processes that direct their child’s care and programs and, as

such, can provide significant support to other parents in similar circumstances.Financial Information

Welcome Baby is a free community service offered by United Way of Utah County and the Utah County Health Department. Welcoming a newborn baby into your home is an overwhelming experience. Like other first-time parents, you are probably experiencing feelings of

excitement and anticipation, as well as anxiety and uncertainty. The next few years of your child's life are very critical, and parents play a vital role in promoting healthy growth and development. Because children don’t come with a user’s manual, parents are left to follow their instincts, rely on previous knowledge, research the answers or ask family and friends for advice. It is definitely a learning experience, but not one that has to be done alone.

enjoy together, like:o Taking a walk in the parko Going to museumo Inspiring each othero Listening to musico Hanging out and talking

Some Bigs meet their Littles on the weekends. Others get together with their Littles in the evenings. Each match is unique and develops a schedule that works for them.

Bridle Up Hopehttp://www.bridleuphope.org/

Bridle Up Hope Business Phone: 801-709-3339 [email protected] What makes Bridle Up Hope different is that it has created a first-of-its-kind worldwide program focusing only on young women between the ages of 12-25 years old.

Equine program is called "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Equestrians" This 3-Part Program is 1) learning how to ride and care for horses, 2) learning life skills, incorporated as part of the riding lessons, based on the book

"The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens" by Sean Covey, and 3) volunteering to help at the barn and to assist other Riders. In addition, once a month the Riders gather at our barn to enjoy Whinny Girls. It’s an opportunity for the girls to participate in fun riding classes, mingle with other riders, and volunteer.

The Bridle Up Hope way is a 13-lesson program that consists of a 1-hour horseback riding lesson per week, at our temporary location in Highland, Utah. Each of the private lessons, are just between the rider, instructor and horse. This allows each girl individual attention to learn equestrian skills and the

opportunity to bond with their horse. Lesson times are Monday through Saturday and are flexible according to the scheduling needs of the Riders and our instructors. Instructors have been carefully chosen because of their great personalities and unique ability to share their love of horses and build those around them. Riders are able to choose between English or Western riding. Safety is our first concern and so all Riders are required to wear helmets (provided by Bridle Up Hope) and closed toe shoes, preferably riding boots. Because our program builds upon itself weekly, it is vital that each rider is committed to starting and completing the program, and does not miss any

lessons unless it’s an emergency or due to illness. At the start of the Program, all Riders will receive a Bridle Up Hope T-shirt, a beautiful picture book on horses, and the book “The 7 Habits of Highly

Effective Teens.” In addition to our 1-hour horseback riding lesson per week, girls are asked to volunteer 1 hour a week. Our volunteer hours are from 4:00-6:00pm

Monday-Friday and 9:00-11:00am on Saturday. After completing our 13-lesson program, Riders will attend a fun and engaging Advancement Ceremony where they will have a chance to celebrate their

accomplishments with family and friends. In addition, each Rider will be recognized, one-by-one, and will receive a graduation certificate, DVD video of them riding, trophy, wristbands, and a “Pink Horseshoe” necklace as gifts.

Upon Advancement, Riders will have the option of continuing riding in a group lesson at a nominal fee, or they may continue to volunteer either at our barn or at Whinny Girls.

Girl Scouts Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place. In Girl Scouts, girls discover the fun, friendship, and power of girls together. Through a myriad of enriching experiences, such as extraordinary field trips, sports skill-building clinics, community service projects, cultural exchanges,

and environmental stewardships, girls grow courageous and strong. Girl Scouting helps girls develop their full individual potential; relate to others with increasing understanding, skill, and respect; develop values to guide

their actions and provide the foundation for sound decision-making; and contribute to the improvement of society through their abilities, leadership skills, and cooperation with others.

By being a Girl Scout, girls aren't just joining a club or selling some cookies. By being a Girl Scout, girls are becoming leaders interested in making the world a better place. Girl Scouts offers you something that nothing else can--the Girl Scout Leadership Experience.


801-229-1181

Whether through STEM, the Outdoors, Healthy Living, Advocacy, or Financial Literacy, Girl Scouts of Utah provides quality program opportunities that are relevant to what girls need to thrive in a rapidly changing world.

All of our programs follow the Girl Scout Leadership Experience Model which emphasizes a girl-led, cooperative, and experiential learning environment. A girl who participate in a Girl Scout event is sure to feel respected, heard, empowered, and like she can make a difference in the world--and most importantly, girls will have FUN!

Every Girl Scout adventure is designed to nurture confidence, help her make new friends, and encourage personal growth. Check out all of our events and activities and register the special girl in your life today!

Travelo In Girl Scouting, travel is about fun, exploration, and once-in-a-lifetime experiences that allow you—the girl—to learn to appreciate other

cultures, new places, and the outdoors. Through all of this, you learn about yourself and you become a leader as you plan, budget, earn money, prepare, and participate in regional, national, and international trips.

o If you are interested in traveling, start talking to your troop leader and fellow Girl Scouts. There are so many opportunities out there waiting for you! You can travel with your troop throughout Utah, the United States, and even internationally, or you can travel individually on a Girl Scout destination or through a Council-Sponsored Travel Opportunity.

o Girl Scouts of Utah offers training and information sessions for your troop to attend to get you prepared for traveling. Talk to your troop leader to sign up for a Planning Extended Overnight and National Trips Training or Passport to Travel information session to learn everything you’ll need to know!

Volunteering with Girl Scouts Volunteering with Girl Scouts and supporting the Girl Scout Leadership Experience can change a girl's life. Girl Scouting can help girls define their dreams

and make them a reality, like it has for an estimated 59 million alumnae members. Girl Scouting helps girls discover themselves and their values, connects them to their community and friends, and gives them ways to take action to better themselves, their community, and the world.

Girl Scout Leadership Experience (GSLE) Volunteer-Support The Girl Scout Leadership Experience can't happen without volunteers, however the girls are the star. There are three Keys to Leadership: Discover, Connect, and Take Action. Adults and girls should interact together by following the three processes: Girl-

led, Cooperartive Learning, and Learning by Doing. Following are some ways in which girls participate in the Girl Scout Leadership Experience: Badgework: From artist to naturalist to athlete to innovation and everything in between, Girl Scout badges allows girls to discover more about things

they're interested in. Girls can earn badges as an individual, with their troop, or with a few of their Girl Scouting friends. They can even make their own badge!

Leadership Journeys: There are three series of Leadership Journeys: It's your Story-Tell it!, It's your World-Change it!,and It's your Planet-Love it! Each grade level has the option of three Leadership Journeys (falling into the previously listed categories). The Leadership Journey gives girls a chance to discover new things about herself and a topic, connect them with their family, friends, and community, and lastly to take action on something that they're passionate about. Girls can go on Leadership Journeys as an individual, with their troop, or with a few of their Girl Scouting friends.

Bronze, Silver, and Gold Award: The Girl Scout's Highest Awards are girls' way of investing in their passion and finding ways to better the world. The


801-229-1181

Bronze (GS Juniors), Silver (GS Cadettes), and Gold (GS Seniors and Ambassadors) give girls the leadership skills that set them apart from their peers, make them stand out to colleges and on resumes, and helping them be successful throughout their life.

Girl Scouts of Utah's Events: Our events will connect girls to topics they're passionate about and that matters in their life. Our events focus on Healthy Living (media, bullying, and healthy lifestyles), Advocacy (government/civic engagement, environmental stewardship, and human rights/social justice), Outdoors, STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math), and Financial Literacy (budgeting, business-owning, managing).

Teen Mentoring: Girl Scout Cadettes can become Program Aides, and Girl Scout Seniors and Ambassadors can become Volunteers-in-Training! Girls learn to be leaders by finding out how to work with our younger Girl Scouts and by getting practical, hands-on experience being a leader.

Travel: One of the best ways to learn to be a leader is to travel the world. Girls will learn about themselves as theylearn about and connect to other cultures. They will also discover their ability to adapt and meet new people and girls may even be inspired to take action on an issue they discover while abroad!

The Girl Scout Leadership Experience (GSLE) is immersed in everything that that is done as a Girl Scout. If you have any questions about leadership opportunities, a girls' development as a leader, or your role in the Girl Scout Leadership Experience, please contact [email protected].

Seeds of Success Seeds of Success is a volunteer organization that arranges free tutoring for K-12 students in the Community. Our tutors are current BYU students who

take time away from their studies to offer this service. The student and tutor are paired based off of student needs and the skills of the tutor. The program directors act as liaisons between parents and volunteers to make sure students receive optimal tutoring from someone who is well versed in that particular subject. We are excited to tutor and hope to see you soon!

4-H Clubs of Utah County Business Phone: 801-851-8470 100 E Center St. Suite L400Provo, UT 84606

4-H is for boys and girls, grades K-12. The program emphasizes "learning by doing" for the growth and development of youth. At 4-H youth gain knowledge and skills in:

o Goal Settingo Leadershipo Teamworko Responsibilityo Project Planningo Organizational Skillso Communication Skillso Self-motivation


801-229-1181

o Citizenshipo The goal of the program is to help youth develop into self-directing, contributing and productive members of society.

4-H is run through volunteer-led clubs. 4-H clubs are a safe place to explore new interests, learn through trial and error, and make new friends--all while having the support of a caring mentor. Each 4-H club meets at least 6 times a year. Different projects can be selected based on the interests of the youth involved. These projects are then completed within the club. Project areas are a great way to not only develop interests but also to gain new life skills. 4-H has more than 150 projects from which to choose. Some of these include:

o Roboticso Sewingo Livestocko Photographyo Public Speakingo Cooking o Horses

Most clubs in Utah County are family clubs or neighborhood clubs where parents are the leaders and their children are the 4-H members. There are also community clubs in the livestock and horse project areas. We are able to give out club leaders’ names with their permission. These

leaders may or may not be taking new members into their clubs. Children in 3rd through 12th grades are 4-H members, children in kindergarten through 2nd grade are Clover bud members. Some clubs meet weekly all year, others daily during the summer: the minimum requirement is six times per year. Most clubs work toward having their

projects finished so they can enter them at the Utah County Fair. Our fair is in August at the Spanish Fork Fairgrounds and entry information can be found in our e-newsletter or on this website.

There are many 4-H activities offered on the county and state levels throughout the year. Some are specific to a certain age and some require a registration fee. You may read further about these activities on both this website and the state 4-H website at http://utah4h.org

Youth and Families with Promiseo The mission of the 4-H Mentoring: Youth and Families with Promise program is to increase the developmental assets of youth, ages 10-14, and

their families.o This mission is accomplished by utilizing culturally appropriate, early-intervention strategies such as one-to-one mentoring, involvement in 4-H

clubs, and family activities. 4-H Mentoring: Youth and Families with Promise is designed to increase youth’s interpersonal competence, improve youth’s academic performance, and strengthen family relationships.

Enrollment To get started, each 4-H family will need to set up a family account. Once that is completed you can add family members to your account (this is where

you will add clubs and projects).

Each month the Provo City Housing Authority (PCHA) helps approximately 1,300 Provo resident households afford decent and safe housing through our affordable housing programs.

Our programs assist low-income families, elderly and disabled individuals. These programs include Public Housing, the Housing Choice Voucher Program, Low-Income-Housing-Tax-Credit (LIHTC) Affordable Housing, Supportive

Housing, Shelter Plus Care vouchers, and Family Self Sufficiency.Housing Choice Vouchers

The Housing Choice Voucher Program (formerly known as Section 8) provides low-income families, elderly and disabled individuals an opportunity to afford quality housing in the private rental market.

The Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) provides monthly rental assistance payments to private landlords on behalf of low-income households who have been determined eligible by the Housing Authority.

Households earning less than 50% of the Area Median Income (AMI) will income-qualify for the HCV program.Participants pay 30% of their gross adjusted income for rent, directly to their landlord, and the Housing Authority pays the balance of the rent to the landlord.To qualify for assistance, Housing Choice Voucher applicants must qualify as a current Provo resident, as well as qualify as a family, elderly, or disabled household. Single individuals who do not qualify as elderly or disabled will not advance on the waiting list. Non-Provo residents will not advance on the waiting list.All housing recipients are required to income-qualify for the housing assistance they receive. For the Housing Choice Voucher program, the income limit 50% of the Area Median Income (AMI) adjusted for household size. For the Public Housing Program, the income limit is 50% of AMI adjusted for household size for developments build or acquired after 1981, and 80% AMI adjusted for household size for developments built or acquired prior to 1981.

individuals.

literacy challenges, the need for job skills, domestic violence, or emotional crisis. Eligibility: All Housing Choice Voucher holders (Section 8 rental assistance recipients) can apply for the FSS program. We have a limited number of FSS

openings available.Approximate waiting list times vary

This easy to use and searchable database can help you find available and affordable apartments for rent in Utah. You can search for housing units that match your specific needs, income, and location. Units listed generally serve populations at 80% or below the area median income (AMI). Units are listed by location and type and will show the maximum rent that could be charged as a percent of your income. The database also shows the

number of units at each property and whether any units are available. For current information about a property, please contact the property managers directly. Some properties may require other reasonable fees such as

cleaning and security deposits. This database includes only those properties that have received funding from the Olene Walker Housing Loan Fund or other properties that have chosen

to participate. Individuals looking for affordable housing should also continue working with case workers, housing authorities, and homeless agencies to take advantage

of their expertise and contacts. Staff at these agencies are often aware of other individual units scattered throughout a community.

The Promise of Women and FamiliesThe Promise of Women and Families, operated by the Utah County Department of Drug and Alcohol Prevention and Treatment, exists to meet federal priorities for treatment of women and their families under the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment block grant. These priorities specify that pregnant women and intravenous (I.V.) drug users must receive highest priority for treatment.

Women in drug and alcohol treatment face unique barriers that must be overcome in order to enhance their chances to remain in treatment through completion. These needs include gender specific counseling, child care, primary health care, transportation, housing, education, and employment.

Accessing Services To access services, women must complete a Substance Abuse assessment at the Department of Drug and Alcohol Prevention and Treatment


801-229-1181

Assessment and Education center. If they meet admission criteria for treatment, they may be referred to The Promise of Women and Families program. The Promise Program is a full spectrum treatment program for mothers with children. Mothers with the highest acuity attend The House of Hope, which, through a partnership with the Utah Alcoholism Foundation, provides a 90 day

residential treatment for women and their children. Mothers with medium acuity attend the Promise Intensive Outpatient Program. This home-like setting provides a place for women to bring their

children ages 0 - 6 years for treatment. Children are in therapeutic daycare and substance abuse prevention programs while mom is in treatment. Mothers with a low severity substance abuse problem attend the Promise General Outpatient Program, which encourages the women to become more

self-sufficient through a community awareness approach. To facilitate engagement and completion of treatment, two Promise program sites are in operation.

o The Orem office serves clients living north of Center Street in Provo.o The Spanish Fork office serves clients living south of Center Street, Provo all the way to Santaquin.

The Promise Program provides case management services to co-ordinate, assess, and monitor the client's particular needs as well as link her to other programs and services available in the county. Gender specific counseling services are also provided as an integral part of the program.

Additional Services In partnership with the Department of Workforce Services, Promise Program clients may be offered employment, job training and health care. In

certain cases a workforce services grant can be offered while the woman is undergoing drug treatment. Staff members of The Promise of Women and Families program also interface with various state and county agencies in order to keep current on

various programs which may benefit women with children.

General outpatient treatment ranges from 1 to 8 hours per week and includes individual and group therapies, skills development, and case

management services for practical problems of sober living. Intensive outpatient treatment ranges from 9 to 19 hours per week. Because of the more intensive treatment needs of adult drug court clients, the Foothill Intensive Outpatient Services program was opened to provide

day and evening options for clients with work, school and parenting obligations. This program can facilitate more frequent drug testing and transfers between other levels of care when necessary.

The 32 bed Foothill Residential Treatment facility was dedicated in October, 2000. The expanded and custom designed building allows for separate treatment of male and female clients addressing their unique treatment needs. It also allows for increased detoxification treatment capacity and the ability to conduct public meetings and self help groups while maintaining client confidentiality.

OUT ProgramThe On-Unit Treatment Program, or OUT Program, is a substance abuse intervention program located in the Utah County Jail. The OUT program is a collaborative venture between the Utah County Division of Substance Abuse and the Utah County Security Center.

Designed to target inmates with substance abuse problems, the OUT program combines substance abuse intervention with counseling for criminal thinking and behavior. Inmates of the Security Center may participate voluntarily or may be court ordered.

There are separate tracks for both male and female inmates.Youth Treatment Services

Phases of Treatment Treatment at Provo Canyon Behavioral Hospital May Involve These Four Phases:

It involves completion of the assessment and implementation of a Treatment Plan which generally includes group therapy, individual therapy, family therapy, and activity therapy. A daily schedule includes focused goal-setting, group therapy and educational groups in which individuals address the issues that have disrupted their lives. A patient may be assigned to a special program


801-229-1181

to deal with trauma resolution or even suicide intervention.o Continuing Care: Provides individualized referrals to community programs in your area to maintain recovery.

Dual Diagnosis Sometimes addiction to alcohol or drugs is accompanied by a secondary, but significant, condition that may affect the positive outcome of treatment

for alcohol other substances. Some of the conditions that lead to a dual diagnosis (co-occurring disorders) include:

o Depressiono Anxietyo Mood Instabilityo Post-traumatic stress

At Provo Canyon Behavioral Hospital, we know that chemical dependency is not a character deficiency or moral weakness. It is progressive, potentially fatal disease that has long-term emotional and physical impact on the individual and the whole family. When it is accompanied by other mental health problems, it is important to treat both. At least 30% of the people who recognize their alcohol and/or drug abuse also have emotional disorders. Addictive behaviors are more likely to continue unless these disorders are recognized and treated.Provo Canyon Behavioral Hospital has decades of experience dealing with psychiatric illness and substance addictions. Our objective is to return an individual to his or her daily routine as soon as possible.
