THE VILLAGE NETWORK IS DEDICATED TO IMPROVING THE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, WELL BEING, AND QUALITY OF LIFE FOR YOUTH AND THEIR FAMILIES THROUGH INTEGRATED TREATMENT FOSTER CARE PROGRAMS. SINCE 2010, TVN HAS OPERATED A SUPERVISED VISITATION PROGRAM THROUGH ITS NEIGHBOR TO NEIGHBOR COMMUNITY FOSTER CARE PROGRAM AND IS THE ONLY PROVIDER OF THESE SERVICES FOR FAMILIES INVOLVED WITH THE DRUG COURT PROGRAM. THE NEW GRANT EXPANDED CAPACITY TO SERVE ADDITIONAL FAMILIES. IN 2019 TVN DEVELOPED A TRANSITIONAL LIVING PROGRAM FOR YOUTH ABOUT TO AGE OUT OF THE FOSTER CARE SYSTEM, HELPING THEM LEARN WORK AND LIFE SKILLS THROUGH A PARTNERSHIP WITH GOODWILL INDUSTRIES OF WAYNE AND HOLMES COUNTIES. THE ORGANIZATION SERVED 968 YOUTH IN 230 DIFFERENT TREATMENT FOSTER CARE HOMES IN 2020.

THE VILLAGE NETWORK IS DEDICATED TO IMPROVING THE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, WELL BEING, AND QUALITY OF LIFE FOR YOUTH AND THEIR FAMILIES THROUGH FOUR INTEGRATED RESIDENTIAL CARE PROGRAMS. THE ORGANIZATION SERVED 335 INDIVIDUAL YOUTH IN ITS VARIETY OF RESIDENTIAL PROGRAMMING - STATE CERTIFIED SEXUALLY REACTIVE AND JUVENILE SEXUAL OFFENDER PROGRAMS, TRAUMA FOCUSED CARE, A TRANSITIONAL LIVING PROGRAM, AND THREE PROGRAMS FOR YOUNG WOMEN, INCLUDING A SPECIFIC PROGRAM FOR SURVIVORS OF HUMAN TRAFFICKING. THE VILLAGE HAS AN ENTREPRENEURSHIP PROGRAM TO TRAIN YOUTH IN DEVELOPING MARKETABLE SKILLS TO ENCOURAGE INDEPENDENCE AND SUCCESS AFTER DISCHARGE. THE THERAPEUTIC STABILIZATION CENTER OPENED IN NOVEMBER 2018 AND HAS SINCE SERVED A TOTAL OF 127 YOUTH FROM MULTIPLE COUNTIES BY PROVIDING THEM WITH IMMEDIATE INTERVENTION AND CRISIS CARE. THE AVERAGE LENGTH OF STAY HAS BEEN APPROXIMATELY 29 DAYS. THE GOAL FOR THIS PROGRAM IS TO HELP THE CLIENT STABILIZE AND RETURN TO THE CAREGIVER.

THE VILLAGE NETWORK IS DEDICATED TO IMPROVING THE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, WELL BEING, AND QUALITY OF LIFE FOR YOUTH AND THEIR FAMILIES THROUGH INTEGRATED DAY TREATMENT AND VARIOUS COMMUNITY BASED PROGRAMS. THE ORGANIZATION CONTINUED ITS COMMITMENT TO EARLY CHILDHOOD MENTAL HEALTH INTERVENTION AS EVIDENCED BY THE EXPANSION INTO 30 HEAD START CLASSROOMS IN OHIO AND WEST VIRGINIA AND IMPLEMENTATION OF PCIT (PARENT-CHILD INTERACTION THERAPY) IN SEVERAL NETWORKS. THE VILLAGE ALSO SERVES IN NEARLY 90 SCHOOL BASED PARTNERSHIPS, SIGNIFICANTLY EXPANDING OUTREACH AND EDUCATIONAL EFFORTS TO BRING COMPREHENSIVE SCHOOL BASED BEHAVIORAL HEALTHCARE TO YOUTHS MOST IN NEED. AS A RESPONSE TO THE COVID PANDEMIC AND THE SHIFTING OF SOME SCHOOLS TO REMOTE LEARNING, TVN HAS SIGNIFICANTLY EXPANDED TELECOUNSELING SERVICES TO FILL THE GAPS. TVN SELECTED LEAP AS A NEW PARTNER FOR EDUCATION SERVICES AT THE WOOSTER AND SALEM RESIDENTIAL CAMPUSES. IN JANUARY 2018, TVN WAS AWARDED THE RAPID RESPONSE GRANT WHICH IS A 3-YEAR PROGRAM DESIGNED TO MEET THE NEEDS OF APPROXIMATELY 300 YOUTH AGES 11 - 17 AS WELL AS THEIR FAMILIES WITH A GOAL OF REDUCING UNEXPECTED CUSTODY ORDERS AND UNNECESSARY PLACEMENTS. THE PROGRAM CONTINUES TO EXPAND AND A PARENTING PROGRAM WAS ADDED LAST YEAR AS WELL AS A DAY TREATMENT COMPONENT. TVN WAS AGAIN AWARDED A GRANT TO PROVIDE CLINICAL MENTAL HEALTH AND OTHER THERAPEUTIC SERVICES FOR INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES PASSING THROUGH THE KNOX COUNTY JUVENILE COURT SYSTEMS. IN 2019, TVN BEGAN A PARTNERSHIP WITH A NATIONAL ORGANIZATION TO SERVE THE MENTAL HEALTH NEEDS OF THEIR RESIDENTS WHO HAVE SURVIVED HUMAN TRAFFICKING IN A LOCAL SAFE HOUSE. TVN ALSO PARTNERED WITH THE VETERAN'S HONOR COURT OF BELMONT COUNTY TO PROVIDE MENTAL HEALTH AND ALCOHOL AND DRUG TREATMENT TO VETERANS WHO ARE CONVICTED OF A NON-VIOLENT FELONY DIRECTLY RELATED TO THEIR MILITARY SERVICE. IN EARLY 2015, TVN WAS DEEMED A FLAGSHIP ORGANIZATION OF DR. BRUCE PERRY'S CHILD TRAUMA ACADEMY IN THE NEUROSEQUENTIAL MODEL OF THERAPEUTICS (NMT). THE NMT INTEGRATES SEVERAL CORE PRINCIPLES OF NEURODEVELOPMENT AND TRAUMATOLOGY INTO A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH TO THE CHILD, FAMILY, AND THEIR BROADER COMMUNITY. DR. PERRY EXPANDED NMT TO THE NEUROSEQUENTIAL MODEL OF EDUCATION (NME), A SET OF CORE CONCEPTS BASED ON THE BELIEF THAT EDUCATORS WHO ARE BETTER INFORMED ABOUT BRAIN DEVELOPMENT AND THE EFFECTS OF TRAUMA WILL BECOME THE BEST CREATORS OF EFFECTIVE CLASSROOM INTERVENTIONS THAT WILL AID HEALING, LEARNING AND INTELLECTUAL ADVENTURE. THE VILLAGE NETWORK TRAINS TEACHERS THROUGHOUT OHIO IN THE NME FRAMEWORK. ONE OF THE VILLAGE'S NEWEST VENTURES IS PARTICIPATION IN ODJFS'S BRIDGES PROGRAM; A POST-EMANCIPATION SUPPORT PROGRAM THAT EXTENDS HOUSING AND OTHER SUPPORTIVE SERVICES TO ELIGIBLE FORMER FOSTER YOUTH AGED 18 - 21. THE ORGANIZATION SERVED 5,260 YOUTH IN 2020 IN THESE DAY TREATMENT AND COMMUNITY BASED PROGRAMS.
