About Carson Valley Childrens Aid – Flourtown
Children and teens needing behavioral help can find it at Carson Valley Children’s Aid. They are an inclusive facility providing preventive and placement services with a mixture of outpatient and inpatient options. You’ll find it in the Philadelphia suburb of Flourtown, Pennsylvania.
Carson Valley places equal emphasis on the needs of the client and their family. Robust family support aids in the recovery of affected members while simultaneously supporting the client.
Early prevention and intervention aim to identify problem behaviors early and provide immediate services. These programs take many forms, including case management support and transitional care. Fatherhood workshops are also available to sharpen parenting skills.
The most unique intervention options that stand out to me are those focused on school. Truancy prevention helps families with students who repeatedly miss school by providing targeted case management. Ensuring students stay in school adds much needed structure and helps them get the most out of their education.
I also want to draw attention to their day treatment (sometimes known as partial hospitalization) program. These programs typically involve clients spending most of their day in treatment, participating in therapeutic groups and working directly with their care team. This program provides support with their regular school day so there’s no fear of treatment getting in the way of their classes.
This location offers several residential programs for different groups and needs. This includes on-campus residential care as well as supervised group homes throughout the communities served.
There’s also a supported independent living program for young adults (18 to 21). This provides apartments to qualifying individuals. Case management is provided to assist residents in developing the skills needed to lead an independent and healthy life.
