RUNAWAY AND HOMELESS YOUTH
A Program of Catholic Charities Herkimer County
What is Life Skills?
Our Life Skills Program is an evidence based tool through the Casey Family Program. This
tool is utilized to assess the behaviors and competencies youth need to achieve their long term goals. It also provides a baseline of knowledge and identifies those areas that each youth may wish to give special attention to.
Youth would learn such competencies as:
: Work and study habits
: Planning and goal setting
: Using community resources
: Budgeting and paying bills
: Maintaining healthy relationships
How can my child receive services?
Youth are identified and referred by school staff, or they may have been previously involved with our program.
