Wraparound Case Management and Community Engagement
reVision has professional Case Managers and on-staff licensed clinicians who provide specialized support for youth referred to reVision.
We employ a case management approach, maintaining regular contact with the youth, identifying their needs, locating services through collaborations with dozens of community agencies, and working one-on-one to develop their plans for the future.
The Whole Child
All reVision front-line staff are trained in trauma-informed techniques, including Karen Purvis' Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI® ) and Motivational Interviewing (MI). TBRI is designed for children with a history of abuse, neglect, or trauma. It can be especially challenging for these youth to trust adults and peers, which often results in confusing or problematic behaviors. reVision program staff are trained in this method to see the “whole child” in their care and help them reach their highest potential. Because of their histories, it can be difficult for youth to make healthy life choices, and they are often angry, hostile, unmotivated, or unprepared to change problematic behaviors.
Motivational Interviewing
MI is a client-centered, practical, empathetic, and short-term process to help youth become motivated to change the behaviors preventing them from making healthier choices. A key component of successful MI is trust. returning to their original environment.
Trust
reVision’s Case Managers have deep roots in the community and share a similar background with the youth they work with, so they are compelling role models and trusted confidants.
