Aftercare
You've completed one year at Hilliard House. You have addressed your addictions, debt, poor credit, and court fines. You decided with the encouragement of your case manager to return to school to obtain your GED. You participated in all the job training workshops and the classes that were offered to help find a better paying job. You learned firsthand how to be a good mother and you are engaged with your children's school work and their teachers. Now comes the challenge of your life - living independently in your own home.
A newly-developed component to Hilliard House services is the Aftercare Program. Families that are moving out of the facility after successfully completing the one year program will be engaged in a continuing support system where they will continue to receive services from the agency. Continued monitoring of their substance abuse issues, job stability, budgeting and their children's progress is followed closely by their Aftercare Director. "Perks" such as gift cards, bus tickets, food baskets and financial help should a crisis arise that would affect their ability to remain in their home, are given to the families for continuing on the road to success.
