Life Skills:
We encourage all patients to attend Life skills class. The Life Skills class within the PH Center program provides the opportunity for individuals to develop essential skills needed to successfully transition into the community. Participants create an individualized plan that identifies supports they would like to work towards. Individuals have many opportunities to volunteer in the community, strengthen their after-care plans, and learn about resources that allow for future development. Some focused activities include budgeting, resume building, online job searches, utilizing employment enhancing resources (Maryland Workforce Exchange and Western Maryland Consortium), housing supports, educational programs with financial aid supports, and social service resources. As individuals transition, they go into the community with the knowledge resources and supports that will provide the additional structure needed to allow them success in everyday life.
GED:
We encourage any patient who does not have their GED or High School diploma to take GED classes while in treatment. We offer GED classes for patients who do not have one or who just need tutoring in a particular area. The next GED class start date TBD.
