Substance Use Disorder Treatment Aftercare usually offer individual, group or family therapy sessions and typically focus on understanding the nature of addiction, becoming drug-free and preventing relapse. Employment services provide essential job-related support to justice- involved youth to help them successfully transition back to the community and find stable employment. Services might include skills training in areas like basic education, career readiness, and specific trades; job search assistance such as resume building and interview coaching; and job placement services to connect youth with employers. Programs also might offer vocational training, apprenticeships, on-the-job training, and career planning. Education services provide academic and vocational training to prepare youth for a successful return to the community, aiming to reduce recidivism by fostering practical skills and facilitating access to post- confinement opportunities. Housing assistance includes services such as transitional housing, help with security deposits and move-in costs, rental assistance, and case management to find stable, affordable accommodations.
