Story Behind the Curve
This program has struggled with significant issues related to staffing and management and was put on a Corrective Action Plan. Due to these challenges, the Program Manager was let go by the vendor in February. Due to the onset of COVID in March, the remaining counselor worked with the youth still enrolled in formal counseling but no additional youth were brought on for informal services. That counselor is not certified in TB-CBT so those services were suspended though formal counseling was able to continue virtually through the conclusion of the fiscal year. Given that this program has been through three vendors in the last few years and we have been unable to find a sstable home where the program could operate successfully, we decided to discontinue this program at the conclusion of FY20.
