Nice story from our JOBS program
Just got this report from one of our JOBS staff:
An 18 year old male with PTSD and depression who has a history of trauma and witnessed excessive domestic violence was referred to us last year. His behaviors included violence in the home towards his mother and sister, struggles with following rules, and difficulty in social settings. Over time this client has been able to acknowledge and articulate his anxiety and has been able to engage in therapy to work on this issue. He as also been able to hold several jobs and has enrolled in trucking school. He participated in Spectrum’s snowboarding program and was able to have the opportunity to engage with same age peers and feel more comfortable in the community. The violence in the home has decreased and he is working on his relationship with his mom and sister. He has a long way to go, but has made significant progress in addressing his challenges.
