NY DJJOY - Red Hook Residential Center - Program Description
The youth served at RHRC are adjudicated males, generally between the ages of 12 and 18 who have been placed with OCFS by the New York State Family Courts. In addition to a focus on trauma-informed care, RHRC is also known throughout the state for its ability to work effectively with gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning youth.
It is the mission of RHRC to offer trauma-informed care for youth, guided by the principles of DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), Sanctuary, and the New York Model.
Individual Counseling: Each youth receives individual counseling with a licensed social worker or psychologist at least weekly. Those with substantial mental health needs receive counseling more frequently. Clinicians seek to involve the youth’s families in family counseling as well, be it in person or by telephone conference.
Group Counseling: Groups are designed to meet current youth needs, but usually include Trauma Recovery, Substance Abuse Treatment, DBT and Sanctuary Groups. Other groups offered include Anger Management, Loss and Bereavement, and Caseload groups.
Case Management: Each youth is also afforded weekly individual counseling with their Youth Counselor, who help with behavioral management, release planning, and coordination with the community service team. Each youth is also assigned a mentor who meets with him weekly to support his progress and provide role modeling.
Support Team meetings: These are held monthly for each youth and include the youth, his clinician, educator, case manager, nurse, parent, and aftercare worker. Here the youth identifies his personal goals and the team identifies what programmatic support can be provided to help him reach those goals.
Education: RHRC offers a stimulating full-day school program, with the opportunity to receive credits that transfer back to the youth’s home school upon discharge. Both regular and special educational services are provided at all grade levels as well as occasional field trips, a school store, and tutoring by local Bard College students.
Vocational Opportunities: RHRC currently provides an on-grounds stipend program, as well as on-the-job training in the kitchen and maintenance departments, portfolio development and job readiness.
Health Services: The medical team provides a full-range of services, including twice-daily “sick call,” physical exams, lab work, immunizations, and referrals to specialists including dental.
Recreational Opportunities: RHRC offers Physical Education credits in addition to leisure recreation such as basketball, ping pong, weight-lifting, heavy bag and speed bag, stationary bikes, flag football, volleyball, baseball, swimming, fishing and sledding. Weekly trips into the community are used as rewards and include local movies, bowling, and other activities.
Special Programs: Red Hook Residential Center is known for its array of “enhancement” programming, including such offerings such as yoga, video production, audio recording, stress management, photography, gardening, drumming, musical instruction, hip hop and other dance instruction, motivational speakers and special celebrations.
Religious Services: Ministerial services and pastoral counseling are available to all youth upon request.
Pre-Release Orientation: Release planning begins at intake. The facility support team members work closely with residents, parents and community support team (CST) members to ensure that residents and their families receive the support needed for a timely and successful return to the community.
