Hi Yvonne, in order to be admitted to the SRT, one has to be Baker Acted and found by a court to meet criteria for short term residential care; the order is 179 days. In other words, we cannot admit anyone to the program without a client being held in a receiving facility and being court ordered to the program. Once the client is court ordered, we will assess the client to gain information from the individual and determine if he or she would be appropriate for the program. We are unable to accept any clients with open criminal charges. The clients also have to be able to function on their own in the program and have the cognitive ability to participate in groups. If you have any other questions, please let us know. Thank you!
You have to be stable and willing to stay there for a minimum of 3 to 6 months before you can become independent.
