Approach
Taking a holistic approach, we help students who plan to be fully independent in their 20s and beyond transition smoothly into adult life by helping them with career planning, social networking, and independent living skills using these steps:
- Goal Setting
- Backwards Mapping
- Making a Plan
- Setting up a Schedule
- Ongoing Support
Upon enrollment, students identify goals which determine objectives to create their plan and set their schedule. Reflection and self-evaluation are included regularly to maintain authenticity and motivation.
Program & Structure
Life is not one size fits all. It’s choose your own adventure. Each student has a unique path so we meet them where they’re at and serve as a guide on their journey. In order to do this, we have flexible meeting locations and times to authentically support students needs. Here’s some sample structure info:

- Meeting size: 1 on 1 OR small group
- Times: Everyday – 1x/week | ½ hr – 3 hrs/day
