Major Activities

Activity 2

Keystone program - a collection of services including: - outpatient assessment & treatment: our little haven offers outpatient counseling and psychological services to the general public through the keystone program. Licensed psychologists, social workers and counselors provide assessment (all ages) and treatment (ages infant-12, adults and families). Psychiatric consultation may be scheduled as needed following intake with clinicians. Problems addressed include: depression; anxieties and fears; school problems including attention deficit hyperactivity disorder or learning disorders; behavioral problems such as temper tantrums, defiance or rule-breaking; reactions to family problems, life changes or loss of loved ones; difficulties following traumatic events and concerns about a child's development. Outpatient services take place at the keystone services building. In-home therapy is also available. - parent-child interaction therapy: parent-child interaction therapy (pcit) promotes a closer, more cooperative relationship between a parent and their 2-to-12 year old child and reduces problem behaviors. Over the course of a 12-16 week treatment period, a specially trained clinician coaches the parent in the application of behavior management skills and tracks their usage. Parents quickly master new skill levels and receive continuing validation, support, and reinforcement as they strive to increase their child's willingness to cooperate. Parent-child interaction therapy uses a specialized treatment playroom equipped with parent earpieces and an audiovisual system. Clinicians coach from behind one-way mirrors and issue verbal directives through the earpieces to parents as they interact with their children, accomplishing in weeks what formerly took months. - the parent/child program: parents, caregivers and children attend this 12-week therapeutic group together to teach a new, closer way to be a family. With the support of other parents and through our little haven's unique approach (psycho education + therapist-coaching) parents learn new techniques for better cooperation and a closer relationship. Children gain increased comfort in their parents' growing knowledge and parenting skill, while learning to understand and appropriately express their own feelings. 365 children and families were served this year.

Activity 3

Foster care case management: provides services for children and families involved in the foster care system due to abuse and/or neglect. The children served range in age between newborn to 21 years of age. Case managers assist families in the goal of reunification, but if that is not possible, they work to secure a safe, loving, and permanent home for foster children. Our little haven's foster care case management staff and other st. Louis partners assess the needs of children and families, arrange and provide appropriate services and move children into permanency within a specified period of time. Moving children into permanency means placing children in a permanent home/family situation as soon as possible. This could involve a return to the biological family, a relative placement or an adoptive home. Staff work directly with the children and families in the community with a network of referral/support agencies and the court to coordinate plans of care that meet the outcome criteria of this contract. 114 children were served.
