Therapeutic After School Program

DEVELOPING SKILLS FOR SUCCESS

The Home for Little Wanderers’ Therapeutic After-School Program (TASP) is an interdisciplinary, partial-day program that offers youth ages 12 to 18 a wealth of therapeutic, recreational, educational and family services. Within a safe and secure space, we help nurture youth by providing therapy, homework and life skills support, as well as enrichment experiences in arts, culture, fitness and wellness.

We work collaboratively with children and their families to strengthen social skills, overcome education gaps, foster creativity, develop independence, support healing from trauma and mitigate the impact of mental illness. Our team coordinates educational and social supports through clinical services, individualized treatment plans and comprehensive case management.

At TASP, we believe in the inherent capacity within each individual for healthy development and emotional well-being, and know that a variety of life factors can impact that. We support youth by drawing on their strengths and encouraging goalsetting to increase competencies across all areas and aspects of life.
