UCAN's Therapeutic Youth Home provides a structured, stable and therapeutic living arrangement for youth in the care of the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services. The home works primarily with children and young adults ages 7-18 who have histories of severe trauma, abuse and neglect. Because of their past experience, the clients are in need of a highly structured, 24-hour-a-day treatment facility to address the behavioral and emotional difficulties that surround their previous exposure to trauma and abuse. Clients in the Diermeier Therapeutic Youth Home are offered a wide variety of individualized and group treatment services to aid them in healing and gaining the social and coping skills to graduate from treatment and move to a less restrictive setting.Total Clients Served: 68
UCAN Academy, comprised of two campuses across Chicago, is an innovative 1st through 12th grade year-round therapeutic day school. A special education curriculum is used by experienced staff to help students who have experienced difficulties in previous school settings and who benefit from a smaller, more individualized classroom setting. As the largest and one of the most recognized therapeutic day schools in the area, each child enrolled in UCAN Academy comes to us with a unique set of needs. We use a staff-intense environment for more one-on-one attention. Our students, while coming from diverse and distinct backgrounds, have all experienced difficulties in public or private school settings. Many have become discouraged about learning. We help them to see schooling in a positive light and to reach their highest potential.Total Clients Served: 153
