The Mission
YES Behavioral Health Group Homes provide care for residents in an environment conducive to learning social skills and the development of responsible, self-reliant behavior. Our goal is to instill in our young people the skills necessary to become positive members of the community.
Our Group Home Care Facilities are community based residential facilities for children operated by YES Behavioral Health, Inc., located in the Greater Richmond area. The facilities are designed to work with youth ages 12 to 20 years old that are regarded as having a history of severe emotional, behavioral and/or aggressive reactive problems which have prevented them from living in the community. The program operates with an awakened staff around the clock 24 hours per day, 365 days a year and provides a safe, highly supervised, structured and intensive therapeutic program carried out on a daily basis. Our ratios of residents to staff are 4 to 1 during normal waking hours; 8 to 1 during sleep hours. |
Our program is designed to provide clear boundaries for appropriate behavior through therapeutic programming and groups. Our youth are provided with therapeutic services that consist of individual, family, and group therapy along with behavior modification and social skills training. We provide our youth with residential care in a safe, comfortable, and stimulating home environment staffed with counselors to provide tool for positive growth and development. The educational support component assists youth in achieving their individual educational goals. YES Behavioral Health works with the whole individual and provides a milieu intended to promote growth and development in all areas of the residents’ lives. Our “Treatment Team” consists of a Program Director, Program Manager, Therapist, and residential staff who partner with the client, legal guardians, court systems, schools, physicians, and employers to develop a comprehensive Individual Service Plan. This plan is reviewed and updated on a monthly basis to evaluate the residents; goals, objectives, and outcomes |
