Trauma Informed Care
Skill Building
Through the 3 elements of empowerment we will help you hunt for, find, and hold down a job.
Trauma-informed care (TIC) is a model of care that recognizes the impact of trauma on an individual's well-being and how it can affect their neurological, biological, psychological, and social development. It understands that when hard things happen growing up it impacts the limbic system of the brain and that clients who have had these experiences might have additional challenges in regulating their thoughts and emotions. Trauma-informed care shifts the focus from “What's wrong with you?” to “What happened to you?” It builds relationships before going over rules.
Skill Building: Phoenix Rising will help teens become successful job hunters for life with its robust pipeline training. This training is designed to thoroughly equip teens with the hard and soft skills necessary to hunt for a job, get hired, and stay employed. ​Teens are equipped with aptitude testing, interview skills, resume creation, HR boundaries, professionalism, personality testing and much more. The goal is for clients to be able to hold down a job, not just get a job.
​
Healthy Relationships
Healthy Relationships: Many people who have had hard experiences growing up have a deep mistrust of authority figures because people who had power over them violated boundaries. This is fully understood by Phoenix Rising. Trust is viewed by Phoenix Rising as earned (not expected) by not disrespecting boundaries, by fulfilling each commitments made to clients, and by leading with actions not words. Teens will be encouraged to contribute and participate in group settings while learning the skills necessary to obtain and hold down a job.

The pipeline training is designed to empower and support teens every step of the way as they go on the journey to holding down a job. After obtaining employment each teen is required as part of the program to report on each shift that they complete for the first 60 days of employment. A monetary program graduation gift of $100.00 will be awarded to teens who complete the entire program from start to finish. If a client loses their job for any reason, they may rejoin the job-hunting component to find their next job.
