SOCIAL SUPPORT


Four programs comprise our Social Intervention & Prevention Services Division:

ELDERCARE SERVICES - provides an array of services to caregivers and their aging loved ones. Our services include Caregiver Respite, a lending library (videos and books), confidential support groups, caregiver training, information and referral on services available locally and services available for long-distance caregiving.

HOME VISITING PROGRAMS - these programs are family-strength-based prevention efforts targeted at breaking the cycle of child abuse and maltreatment by working with at-risk parents and their children.  The prenatal through preschool-age program is Early Advantages, a Healthy Families NY program funded in part by the Office of Child & Family Services administered locally through the Clinton County Youth Bureau.  The Parent Aide Program works with high-risk families of youth who are twelve and under, and is funded in part through Clinton County Department of Social Services.

STOP DOMESTIC VIOLENCE - is a NYS certified program assisting victims of domestic violence, 24 hours a day. Services include: a 24-hour hotline; crisis intervention; individual and group supportive counseling; temporary childcare during office visits; advocacy with law enforcement, medical services, local departments of Social Services, etc.; and information and referrals to other local, state and nationwide domestic violence services. 

VIOLENCE INTERVENTION PROJECT (VIP) - is a 33-week educational program designed to teach non-controlling, non-abusive behavior to adult men for the safety and justice of women. Each participant completes an individual intake/assessment and a group orientation prior to attending the 33 two-hour weekly group sessions. The group is based on the Duluth model and has an open enrollment with a 3-week cycle.
