Upcoming Graduations

Dear friends and colleagues:

As you settle into your fall season you may begin receiving calls from families that are anxious about the upcoming graduations or home visits before the holidays. Vive can help.

For your upcoming graduates, Vive invests in bridging the gap between residential programs and the next step. Vive is committed to supporting all of the hard work you have done with your families and supporting the whole family as they transition. Our mentors are professionally trained therapists who can visit with your students on campus and/or with their family during their home visit. Parent Coaches can assist the parents in managing their anxiety as the child transitions from the safe environment of your program back to even highly challenging home environments.

The Vive program is a very robust, community-based model that works to support the whole family. Our mentors support the young person directly in the context of their real world environment with regularly scheduled visits and around the clock availability by phone, email and text messaging in between visits. We feel that the around the clock availability of our parent coaches and mentors is critical in order to be able to effect change in the family system and to support the family during times of crisis.

For recent graduates whose parents may now be calling you regarding the difficulties of their child's return home, Vive can step in with support before the struggles escalate. Our therapists can work with your families to help apply the skills and knowledge they have learned in program in order to help translate these skills into the real world.

Please share our information with your therapists on campus who daily invest in the work of healing their families. Give us a call. We would love to support you.
