In-Home Transition Services
The purpose of Aftercare Services is to help participants continue
the process of "forward walking" which was begun while
participating in ANASAZI and to prepare to overcome potential
challenges which students and family members may encounter upon
their return to the "wilderness of the world."
ANASAZI offers the following Aftercare Services:
- Discharge Plan
An aftercare plan is developed prior to completion
of the trail program. The family's Shadow (therapist)
will make an assessment of the YoungWalker's progress
and needs, as well as the concerns and expectations of parents/caregivers
and others interested in the well being of the YoungWalker
(i.e., extended family, school administrators, law enforcement,
therapists and other helping professionals, etc.). The discharge
plan will include specific recommendations for meeting goals
and sustaining change. The plan may also include recommendations
for testing, outpatient counseling, long-term residential
care, etc.
- Wrap Around
While at ANASAZI, the YoungWalker and parents/caregivers
may identify and invite those interested in the well being
of the YoungWalker to participate in a "wrap around"
team to provide support and accountability to the YoungWalker
and family. One week prior to completion of the trail program,
the family's Shadow will provide an outline of specific
concerns and targeted goals for the YW and family. Parents/caregivers
will be invited to share the concerns and goals to the team
and help each member of the team identify objectives and strategies
to help.
- For Fee Services
ANASAZI provides fee-based services to families who desire
further therapeutic intervention including outpatient therapy
through individual, couples, group, or family therapy provided at
the ANASAZI office facility or through telephone "coaching"
sessions for those outside of the local area.
Additionally, parents/caregivers are welcome to participate in
The Choice in Intervention
seminars at the ANASAZI site for up to a year with no additional
charge ($100 fee for replacement or new materials if necessary).
Parents and YoungWalkers can also find support through active
participation in Alumni Services.
ANASAZI offers comprehensive in-home transition services to families completing its
42-day program. The optional six-week course augments ANASAZI's existing aftercare
offering with extensive assessment, planning, and parent coaching initiated by a transition
specialist during a three-day home visit.
Administered in partnership with the transition management experts at Homeward Bound,
the program is designed to help families apply principles learned at ANASAZI to create
a home environment that enhances family unity and promotes a lasting and positive
change in family behavior.
Services include:
- Three-day in-home visit by a transition specialist who will help facilitate
family discussion, establish structure, identify current issues, and move the family
toward desired outcomes
- Panoramic assessment of family background and dynamics, with input from the
family's chosen community, program and educational professionals
- Telecoaching, provided during scheduled sessions and based on the principles
taught at ANASAZI and in Homeward Bound's proven transition management curriculum
- Direct access to a transition specialist who will help the family, as needed, to
find solutions to the problems of the moment
- One-year subscription to the online Family Bridge parent resource library, with
access to valuable family assessment and communication tools
The cost for the program is $7900, plus air fare required for the in-home visit by a
family transition specialist.
