Intensive In-Home Treatment Services:
This service offers an intensive, homebased
treatment for children and adults.
This service is utilized to resolve major
discord with the family dynamics. In
case, the discord is a result of trauma
experienced by the child as a result of
losing 2 parents who died because of
AIDS. The extended family is also
experiencing trauma due to the loss
of the relative as well as trying to cope
with the economic stress of taking in an
additional child to feed because of the loss
of parents. The goals are to support and try
to provide family preservation as needed
Crisis Intervention Treatment:
This service provides a treatment plan
that provides adequate support to the
individual and family along with practical
or spiritual education to intervene during
periods of disruption within the home
the orphan is living in when behavioral
problems occur as a consequence of
trauma experienced by the orphan.
Family Assessments
Family Assessments will be conducted
at each home to give the PRP worker a
full picture of who in the home provides
support to the orphan so that assessment
tools are utilized to examine the family
dynamics and to assist in making the
appropriate recommendations to aid
the family in coping with the loss of
the parents.
