LIFTD/WCRC is a structured 24-hour, 7 days a week, reality-oriented residential treatment program. It works with the extremely difficult and challenging population, providing residential services, safe and secure in purpose, normalizing and therapeutic, with a vocational focus. WCRC provides psychosocial skills, self-care, independent living skills, vocational adjustment, and innovative approaches to assist mentally ill women. Also, the center assists clients in the transition from in-patient care and homelessness, to enable them to live as independently as possible in the community. Other opportunities rendered include job placement or referrals, on-site counseling and off-site mentoring/monitoring, and steps to behavior modification. The aim of this center is to reduce the frequency and length of episodes of in-patient care and/or homelessness, to increase residents’ ability to stabilize within their community, and to provide vocational training opportunities for residents to learn employment skills values, health awareness, and money management skills, thereby, enhancing their capacity for increased levels of employment stability. ESGP assistance provides for assistance with payment of essential services for counseling for residents and assistance with basic operations expenses at the shelter facility.
