CHILD-FOCUSED CARE

Criteria for Service

  • Children ages 6-17 are eligible for placement.
  • Children older than 18 may continue to live on campus if they have not yet completed high school, or may be eligible for the Transitional Living program. This allows them to become more independent in apartment living, while working or continuing additional education.
