Community Programs Flashcards
Residential programs
Our two residentials look like a jail with wired fencing and getting patted down (not 100 on the pat down)
STEPS(stages to enhance parole success)- good for job readiness, academic assistance, money management, substance abuse counseling, relapse prevention. A little more behavior and employment focused. Stay is 90-180 days - kintock (newark), kintock(Bridgeton) delaney hall(newark); bo Robinson(Trenton)
RESAP(re entry substance abuse program) Is more addiction focused. 90-180 days(Camden, Trenton, newark all have one)
Community resource centers
Good for gang bangers. U go there in the day and it helps with triggers, relationships, leaving gangs. It can serve as a graduated sanction or provide step down services from residential. Length of stay is based on risk. Educational programs too
It’s a one size fits all
Non residential and it’s primarily good for people who can’t find work
