Service Description

The Responsive Coaching Program caters to high school and college age youth between the ages of 14 and 24. The reactive coaching program provides additional support and bridge the gap for youth who are emotionally and physically ready to take the next step in progressing. This program is for youth who are needing some of the foundations of life such as but not limited to serve and return, executive functions and self-regulation skills. These youth are provided with support, motivation, inspiration, laughter, and empowerment on a weekly basis. Youth are provided with tools to overcome obstacles. Youth are provided with the S.M.I.L.E. model which can be applied to every situation in life. We positively scaffold onto their current foundation with positive speaking, affirmations, beliefs, self-esteem, self-awareness, connection, caring, community, character, and competence. We provide tools to enhance each youth’s executive function and self-regulation skills. Executive Function and Self-Regulation skills are vital for overall development. Executive function is the mental processes that enables individuals to plan, focus, remember instructions, and handle multiple tasks successfully. We guide youth into setting S.M.A.R.T. goals, making good decisions, meaningful interactions, and increased independency. High school and college youth are provided with a pre and post survey to measure both our program and how we have assisted the youth in developing. Youth are also provided with coping mechanisms, interviewing skills, assistance in creating 3 month, 6 month and 1 year goals in education, personable, being, possible career exposure and finance.
