The Navigators is an Intense Program for Teens.
This project is designed to change the lives of At-Risk Youth through a program called “The Navigators”. The Navigators focuses on educating and training youth to become civic minded youth by distracted from delinquent behavior and introducing them into the importance of the the environment. Navigators provide a professional and discreet environment in which a teen and their family can receive help for their emotional and/or chemical dependency problems. Through weekly tracking mechanisms, the programs success will be determined by tracking delinquent at risk behaviors like drug/alcohol usage, fighting, family conflicts, stealing, and illegal activities. Drug tests, parental interviews and client interviews will be used to monitor each participant’s progress. The goal will to help youth avoid delinquent behavior. The program will target youth identified as having behaviors that are self destructive and behaviors that will prevent the client from achieving personal success.
The Navigators work with families to repair damages done and help bring the family back together in a healthy relationship.
On going group counseling is a major part of the program as it provides knowledge, motivation, teamwork and direction.
Individual and family therapy as well as workshops are required to help assist the families of the at risk youth. Once the work book, on 10 identified socials skills, has been completed youth enter into a self identity program that will offer more group, family, individual counseling and the High Adventure activities. If a youth falls back into at-risk behaviors, he or she must audit the six-week program.
Monthly team building activities like scuba diving, horse back riding, camping and outings will build skills on teamwork and responsibility. Parents and other family members are not left out. In order for this program to work, family members must attend family session and Monthly Family Intensive Workshops. Upon completion of the program teens and their families will continue the healing process by attending aftercare meetings. Several projects have been set up for youth to participate in that will allow them to feel accomplished and help them give back to society.
