Admission to Homme...
 
 

Admissions Criteria:

Males and females between the ages of 10 and 20 (18 to 20 on a juvenile order) are eligible for placement with Homme. Each referral is reviewed and a face to face admissions screen is held. Homme is committed to quality care and wishes to be certain that the individual is matched to the appropriate program, which can best assist him/her.

We will do all we can to ensure that your referral is treated with dignity, confidentiality and respect. That’s part of our philosophy – to treat each youth as a unique individual.

 

Placement Options:  Homme has offered treatment-specific programming for males and females since 1985 when it opened its first sex offender program.  Programs are now available for sexually acting out youth, abuse victims, fire-starters, cognitively delayed and community-based programming.

Assessment:  Homme will do 30-day placements to determine treatment needs, stabilize behaviors and assess risk as well as appropriate intervention.

Short-term:  Homme will collaborate with other agencies to provide short-term care to youth that are placed while community-based programming is arranged.  We have 60-day and 90-day programming to be used in conjunction with intensive aftercare.

Graduation:  Homme continues to serve youth long-term. These youth complete a multi-tiered level system, which takes them from assessment to relapse prevention through an objective-based program.
