Bright Beginnings
Bright Beginnings is a psychosocial rehabilitation (PSR) day program that follows components of a clubhouse model offering each individual a sense of importance, ownership and empowerment through his or her contributions in keeping their clubhouse alive and operating. The program provides an environment of encouragement and support where individuals can build self-esteem and self-confidence in a normalized setting. We maximize opportunities for individual empowerment, independent decision making, and individual input into treatment goals and program involvement. Our services will increase opportunities and skill levels for successful community reintegration in the least restrictive setting and focus on an individual’s strengths and abilities, maximizing skills and improving overall functioning level.
