Community Based Residential Programs

The Key Program operates 19 community-based residential programs throughout Massachusetts and Rhode Island.  Our programs work with youth and families who have experienced trauma, physical and sexual abuse, mental illness, educational challenges, as well as involvement with the juvenile justice system.  Our community-based residential program models include:

Bridge to Success

Our Bridge to Success program provides life skills development and permanency planning for adolescents females between the ages of 16-21.  The core components are preparation for adulthood through skills assessment and skill building, and life-long connections for each youth.  Referrals to this program are made through the Rhode Island Department of Children, Youth and Families (DCYF).

Intensive Treatment Residence Program

Our Intensive Treatment Residence Program model provides small, community-based settings.  Depending on the client's treatment plan, length of stay ranges from three months to eighteen months.  These strength-based programs include family work, pro-social life skills training, education, clinical assessment, counseling and recreation in order to prepare the child for reunification or a transition to a less restrictive environment.  Referrals to these programs are made through the Massachusetts Department of Children and Families (DCF).

Emergency Residence Program

Our Emergency Residence program model provides emergency placement to youth who are runaways, abused or neglected and/or court-involved.  Placement within an emergency residence program is for up to 90 days, during which time the focus is on stabilization, clinical assessment, life skills training and educational assistance to prepare the child for reunification or another appropriate placement.  Referrals to these programs are made through the Massachusetts Department of Children and Families (DCF) and the Rhode Island Department of Children, Youth and Families (DCYF).
