(EstateNewsWire.com, April 02, 2013 ) Dothan, AL -- Achieving Reunification Center in Philadelphia is the only facility in the nation that specifically targets its efforts toward bringing together families that have children in out-of-home placement. They also understand that parents in these circumstances face many confusing and often conflicting requirements mandated by workforce policies, public benefits rules and child welfare services.
To help parents navigate the path of reunification by establishing a stable, loving home and self-sufficiency, ARC offers the following services:
Technology support: The Achieving Reunification Center has a modern computer lab that provides parents not only with computer access, but also the opportunity to participate in classes ranging from basic computer operation, typing, e-mail, internet queries and Microsoft Office software.
Workforce Development: The Achieving Reunification Center offers participating parents a non-threatening environment where they can enhance their skills to prepare for and connect to part-time and full-time employment. The first part of the process is an employment assessment, where current skills, interests, and past work experiences are evaluated, followed by instruction and workshops on job search skills, resume and cover letter construction, interview strategy and other “workplace survival” necessities. Additionally, ARC can provide professional clothing for interviews and has many links to job training and employment opportunities.
Children’s Learning Center: This center serves as more than a simple family visitation site. The learning center also offers structured activities for children of all ages and private Filial Play Therapy sessions for children ages 3- 12. Filial play therapy is a unique way to strengthen the bond between parents and their children, remove communication barriers and have a ton of fun.
Housing and Financial Counseling: To reunite their families, it is necessary for parents to find and attain safe, stable, affordable housing. Workshops and counseling projects offered by ARC cover pertinent topics like application preparation, tenant rights, Section 8 housing opportunities, financial planning, banking solutions, free income tax preparation, and various other advocacy matters.
Fatherhood support: The Achieving Reunification Center understands that the reunification process can be especially difficult for fathers, and fathers play a critical role in the development and growth of their children and families. To support participating fathers, ARC provides programs specifically designed for men to enhance their life skills. These include parenting training, health/nutrition classes and home safety/management workshops. All services offered through ARC’s fatherhood support program promote personal development so they may able to achieve self-sufficiency.
