Hillside Community Intervention Program

Hillside is known for its extraordinary commitment to the children it serves, and our Community Intervention Program is highly regarded for carrying this commitment into the community and into families’ living rooms. We know that youth who have been in residential treatment or other out-of-home placements sometimes need intensive support to return to their home communities. Our staff is made up of clinicians and paraprofessionals who have passion, creativity, and experience partnering with families who have children with intensive needs. Available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, we are committed to doing whatever it takes to keep your family together.

Our staff members will come out to your home at times convenient to you. We will work with you to develop a plan of care to address your current needs, and we will work with you to put this plan into action. We will explore your family’s strengths and we will utilize those strengths in developing a unique plan with specific interventions to target behaviors that have been problematic for your family. Following this plan – based on your family’s strengths, ideas, goals and preferences – our staff members will deliver services to your family in your home and community. The plan and services will evolve as our staff members and your family, as a team, determines what works best in achieving the results your family wishes to see.

Expected program services:

• Skill development
• DBT community-based skill coaching

Some of our family members have said:

“The home visits that were made to my home really helped my daughter and I to use the DBT skills that were taught to us at Hillside’s Residential Program!”

“The services offered at Hillside were phenomenal. I would refer this program to anyone in need of services for their child.”
