The mission of Project Six/The Commons is to assist young people in gaining the comprehensive skills necessary to successfully reintegrate into their local school, community and family home.
Project Six/The Commons utilizes a relationship-based treatment model, with evidence-based practice at its core. Its treatment philosophy promotes progress by teaching residents how to develop age-appropriate interpersonal skills that contribute to overall social-emotional, behavioral, and academic improvement. A safe, containing and caring environment focuses on positive ways to engage in relationships. The program is designed to support adolescents by recognizing, rewarding and building upon their strengths while helping them control and eliminate negative behaviors that interfere with learning and leading healthy, productive and satisfying lives.
