Journey Home East is designed as a 6-12 month step down transitional independent living program that offers therapeutic support, life skills development and refinement, and a template for personal growth and responsibility. Based on structure, support, and mentoring, young women emerge from the Journey Home East program emotionally and intellectually equipped to navigate young adult life.
Our core principles guide our program, from daily decisions to therapeutic goals. Learn more about how they help our students lead happy, productive lives.
