KHK's "Service Plan"
« on: April 22, 2005, 10:24:00 AM »
KHK's
"SERVICE PLAN:
At Kids Helping Kids, we believe the most accurate and functional
definition of chemical dependency describes alcohol and drug
dependency as a disease with genetic, psychosocial, and environmental
factors influencing its development and manifestations. We further
believe that, with adolescents, chemical abuse is characterized by
developmental arrest or deterioration which may be viewed in stages
with characteristic physical, psychological, and social symptoms."


"As a result of chemical abuse, the adolescent may experience
inadequacies of personality, impairment of cognitive functioning,
diminished motivation, interpersonal and social conflicts, emotional
blocking and regression, and casual disregard for behavioral
consequences."


"Ultimately, the individual must take responsibility for his/her own
recovery and future drug-free life style."

 
"In addition to individual goals, on first phase, clients begin to
learn the basic disease process and develop knowledge of how drugs
have affected their lives, begin the rehabilitation process by
complying with the program rules and responsibilities and develop
basic communication skills. Before the clients go on to Phase II,
they are expected to know how to apply the basics, to have
experienced catharsis of negative feelings, to feel better and have
a "shine," to have developed an awareness of the relationship between
their bad feelings and their drug use, and have developed a
commitment to stay straight. Phase I is highly structured. Client
move through Phase I on their own schedule but it typically takes 70
to 90 days. This structure over time in a drug free environment is
critical for clients to develop a commitment to recovery."

More from the KHK "service plan"...

"First Phasers are reinforced for progress made during the week by contact
with their parents. If they are working towards acheiving their goals, clients
are granted permission to talk to their parents after Open Meeting. The eighth
and ninth of the twelve steps of AA are; (8). Made a list of all persons we
had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all, (9). Made direct
amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or
others. During talk after Open Meeting, clients begin the amends process."

"When criteria have been met, clients move to Phase II and are called
"Oldcomers." At this point, they move back home and begin restoring thier family
relationships. They also reinforce what they have learned by teaching another
client, their newcomer. Besides continuing to identify and work on individual
goals, second phasers demonstrate increased use of and reliance on the basics,
continue to develop insight into how drugs have affected their lives, progress in
the rehabilitative process, improve communication skills, give and receive
care with family members, serve as model for newcomers and address individual
family issues in individual family therapy. Second Phasers are not only
responsible for themselves but for taking care of their newcomers. If they behave
irresponsibly, they are held accountable. This holds true throughout the remainder
of the program. Clients address individual problems in group and individual
therapy. They also meet educational goals by working with the teacher five
hours/week."

"On fourth phase clients regain privileges such as music, television, and
telephone, and get days off from the program. They continue to increase
self-awareness and add the focus of developing productive peer relationships and using
their leisure time wisely. Fourth phasers are expected to show signs that they
are internalizing the program and are able to consistently use their new
skills. During the Friday Night educational groups, parents and clients begin
planning for aftercare by meeting with other 4th phase parents and clients to
discuss high risk situations and relapse planning."

"Progress tends not to be linear, but erratic. At any time during treatment,
if clients are found to be slipping back into old, unproductive ways of
coping, they may be placed back on a lower phase to give them a better opportunity
to readdress earlier issues."

Sounds like a sales pitch for a new fangled Japanese robot butler.
