Implemented in 1996, Serenity’sTherapeutic Learning Center reduces the damaging effects of neglect, abuse and prenatalexposure to drugs through the intervention strategies of trained professional staff.
The primary objective of this program is to provide a safe therapeutic setting for the foster children to turn their developmental “delays” into developmental “milestones”. In this secure environment, children are allowed to express their hurt, sadness and anger
while being guided to express appropriate social behaviors and problem solving skills.
Academic preparation for preschool and kindergarten is also an integral component of the curriculum.
" A heart at peace gives life to the body" Proverbs 14:30
"Our children flourish in this environment. They feel safe, for we accept them as they are when they come. We are consistent in our respect and appreciation for them. There is no frustration demonstrated towards our little ones, only love, support, encouragement, hope and consistent, repetitive training of new and acceptable ways to get their needs met.
This program is a constant blessing to the staff because of the joy in watching a child transform into a positive, peaceful, self-assured individual. In TLC, experiencing failure is not an option. We are able to work every situation into an opportunity for positive growth."
