Children Residential Program: Behaviorally Challenging
CSC has the sensitivity and the skills for serving children with many complex behaviors. Children enjoy their lives in settings where they make choices about menus, activities, the décor of their homes, and the staff who support them. In instances where the children are not capable of exercising their choice, surrogate decision makers assist in the task. With programs designed and facilitated by a behavior specialist, children learn to develop self control, identify stressors, and signs that lead to other behaviors and loss of control. Programs are developed utilizing the least restrictive techniques. Those requiring more intensive intervention are approved and monitored by CSC’s Standing Committee, a committee that has outside members to ensure quality of care. Staffs are trained to competence before programs can be implemented, and all revisions require additional training. Great care is taken in the planning and development of our behavioral program sites, including location, number of children served, program needs of the children, staff skills and training and community at large.
