Empowered Transitions

Project LIFT Behavioral Health Services proposes a comprehensive Trauma-Informed Violence Reduction Model that incorporates restorative justice principles to address the root causes of youth violence and promote healing. The model comprises restorative justice practices, intensive case management, life skills training, trauma-focused treatment, and community partnerships to fill critical gaps in the current system. Through strategic partnerships with community organizations, schools, and government agencies, the project aims to establish a sustainable framework for reducing recidivism and violence. By prioritizing youth and family engagement, the project ensures interventions are culturally responsive and tailored to the unique needs of everyone.
