PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Residential Services

The residences of NBFS are equipped to house four to eight participants. Staff is trained to promote and maintain a positive, healthy, safe and therapeutic living environment in which children and adults learn daily living skills, goal setting, and demonstrate positive changes throughout their stay. They will learn these skills through independent and/or group sessions, planned activities, and hands on trainings. This environment allows children and adults to:
