Director Department
Jewish Board of Family and Children's Services, New York, New York, us, 10261
Overview
The Kaplan House (Manhattan) and Cedar Knolls House (Bronx) provide therapeutic and support services to adolescents ages 16-21 who are referred through ACS and the Juvenile Justice system. The Supervised Independent Living Program (SILP) provides a transitional living environment for older youth 17-21 years old who are ready to move toward independent living. Our residents have experienced significant trauma, resulting in behavioral, emotional, and functional/development issues. Both programs offer an extensive independent living skills program, including vocational preparation, and educational services that assist youth toward reaching independence. The Jewish Board’s Community Behavioral Health treatment programs provide evidence-based services to individuals and families in the communities we serve. Our staff uses a culturally competent, person-centered approach to help individuals and their families develop skills and resources to improve overall functioning, instill hope, and strengthen resiliency. Our programs work closely with community partners to address health disparities in our neighborhoods while also celebrating the strengths and resilience of our communities. Our children’s community residences are single-site residences that provide a group living environment for eight children and/or adolescents. The program provides a supervised, trauma-informed therapeutic environment, which seeks to develop the resident’s skills and capacity to live in the community and attend school/work as appropriate.
