The success of our model is built on the latest research in epigenetics, brain story, and trauma-informed psychology. It is designed to mitigate the impacts of adverse childhood experiences and intentionally empower mother-led families in building Protective and Compensatory Experiences (PACEs) into the foundations of their lives in order to promote lifelong resiliency.
Our program creates teachable moments through the development of relationships and encompasses connection to community, provides opportunities for financial stability & self-sufficiency, and takes a deep dive into clients’ needs for mental health supports, with therapeutic interventions that focus on trauma-informed modalities.
We see the potential in each person to discover and grow. While each resident ultimately navigates her own path to success, Highbanks provides a safe and supportive community to guide young mothers on their learning journey.
A Place to Feel Safe, Supported, and Ready to Thrive
