Residential Program

The Residential Program is designed to help clients improve mental health and functioning and features activities and workshops. The activities focus on the development of Activities of Daily Living, social skills, coping strategies, accessing community resources, health education, multi-cultural awareness, money management, and recreational activities.

In addition, the Psynergy therapeutic communities offer three “core groups” and five “elective groups” on a regular basis throughout the year. Residents must successfully complete a required number (minimum of 20) core group training sessions in order to graduate with honors from the program. Core group training to residents is offered on a weekly basis, Monday through Friday. Each core group is conducted over a 10-week period on a rotating basis throughout the year. The curriculum for each training group consists of a combination of psychoeducation, process work and skill building exercises.
