Stepping Stones is a
dynamic and cutting-edge intensive Infant Mental Health residential
treatment program whose focus is to ensure that children achieve
overall health, well-being, and development through a collaborative
process with care providers in a safe and structured environment.
Stepping Stones foundational belief is that all children are
entitled to safety and permanency, ideally with their biological parent(s). Through our treatment focused
program, children who may be at risk of or have been removed from
the custody of their biological family participate in services to
address identified individual issues related to their care and
family of origin, in turn, assisting children in achieving
reciprocity and trust in relationships through structure and
consistency.
Stepping Stones
provides infants and children under the age of five and their
caregivers an opportunity to address a variety of problematic
familial patterns and behaviors vital to ensure healthy relationship
development. Stepping
Stones primarily delivers treatment services through the medium of
treatment groups, individual therapy, family counseling, case
management and 1:1 instruction. This unique program provides
opportunities, values and ideals to families in hopes of
incorporating those into the family’s belief system, therefore
creating stronger and healthier relationships in which the child may
grow and prosper. In
addition, this belief system reduces the risk of harm to children,
increases safety and breaks the cycle of family dysfunction.
MISSION
STATEMENT
Stepping Stones provides
children and their parents the opportunity to develop and strengthen
healthy family attachment in a safe and nurturing educational
environment to ensure the ongoing viability of the family unit and
assess family strengths and needs while teaching essential life
skills that lead to healthy family living and relationships through
empowerment, guidance and support.
VALUES
Stepping Stones believes
that children have the right to safety, permanency, well-being and
stable family enviroment. Stepping Stones believes that children have the right
to grow and live with dignity and respect.
When children are treated with respect, they gain
self-respect and respect for others.
Stepping Stones believes that, when supported and empowered,
children and their care takers; are better able to engage in healthy family living and
relationships.
VISION
Our vision is that all
children and their families experiencing issues related to safety, stability,
consistency will be able to access social services and supports
needed to ensure proper growth, development, health and safety.
