College Bound Program
Caron Renaissance is committed to providing patients with a continuum of care that addresses the patient’s educational and academic goals. The program provides the expertise and resources needed for students to get into and graduate from high school, community colleges, public and private universities, vocational schools, and graduate schools.
Caron Renaissance believes in the importance of a solid education to increase a patient’s chances of improving and sustaining life-long mental and physical health. The College Bound Program supplements Caron Renaissance’s continuum of care in regards to academic achievements and success. While patients continue to work on personal issues and their sobriety with their primary therapist, they may also opt to have an educational advisor who will assist in providing the additional academic resources needed to succeed in their educational endeavors.
The College Bound Program at Caron Renaissance works with patients and the clinical team to actualize goals, implement strategies, and develop the motivation necessary for patients to progress academically and achieve success. Individualized educational plans are designed for each patient.
The Advisors of the College Bound Program work one-on-one with patients to find programs that meet their own unique needs and goals. Considerations include whether the school offers the support services and curriculum necessary for a successful and sober young adult. Advisors will also guide patients in developing a budget for the school year and look into potential scholarships to offset academic costs.
College Bound services are offered for no extra charge during treatment or are arranged as part of aftercare, consistent with Caron’s commitment to “Recovery for Life.”
Please note: The College Bound Program is a supplement to the counseling services that a patient’s educational institution may offer, not a replacement. Our expert advisors try to work with school guidance offices to provide additional support to students who may need it.
