Description
Overview

Responsibilities
Program Overview
Our Thrive program, a less intensive alternative to Intercept, is an in-home program that works with the child and family to divert youth from further involvement in the juvenile justice system, intervening at the critical point after they first encounter the system. The youth admitted to this program would be at risk of probation and court involvement but less at risk than youth served in Intercept and MST. The in-home approach, which incorporates the family in treatment, addresses drivers for juvenile delinquent behaviors without out-of-home placement. Thrive utilizes two evidence-based interventions to help youth remain safely in their communities: Collaborative Problem Solving (CPS) and Motivational Interviewing (MI).
