Transition to Independence Program is grounded in The Transition to Independence Process (TIP) Model, a strengths-based approach tailored for transitional aged youth (ages 13 to 21) facing social, emotional, and behavioral challenges. At the core of the TIP Model is the empowerment of youth and young adults to actively participate in shaping their futures. This involves delivering services that are developmentally appropriate, culturally competent, and free from stigma to ensure our services resonate with each individual’s unique needs.
Transition facilitators, along with peer support specialists, develop caring relationships with youth while emphasizing practical skills development, self-advocacy, job readiness and community engagement through group activities.
