Cleveland Christian Home' Hope Center Program provides residential treatment for adolescent males between the ages of 12-17 with a primary issue of sexual aggression. The Hope Center’s mission is to provide a safe, secure environment in which young men and boys are given the training, experiences and ongoing support needed to develop the tools and skills necessary to live independently without victimizing others and to become contributing members of the community. The Hope Center’s intensive treatment program concentrates on cognitive behavioral programming, thinking patterns and behaviors in a modified positive peer culture. The program offers a transition system which focuses on thinking patterns rather than task accomplishment, and provides direct, clear and prompt feedback for boys during each stage of the transition. The goal is to help each youth stop their sexually abusive behavior, understand the impact of their behavior on their victims, accept responsibility for their actions, develop the tools to manage their behavior and personal impulses and develop feelings of competency, self awareness and self-sufficiency.

The Village Network offers an array of programming for youth with sexually reactive and/or sexually abusive behaviors. Our treatment model, the Responsible Living Program, consists of residential programming - both long and short-term, day treatment/partial hospitalization programs, treatment foster care programs, and community based counseling.

The Village Network sexually reactive and juvenile sex offender programs are certified by the Ohio Department of Youth Services. In fact, TVN was the first agency in Ohio to be certified under Sec. 2950.16. As a state certified treatment agency, The Village Network can impact the future of adolescent sex offenders by petitioning the courts to reduce and/or terminate duties to register upon satisfactory completion of TVN’s sexually reactive and juvenile sex offender programs.

We serve male youth generally between the ages of 12-18. Programs are designed for either non-adjudicated or adjudicated youth (to include Tier I, II, or III registrants).

Program components include:

Comprehensive diagnostic assessment to include a risk assessment (using the ERASOR and/or J-SOAP II)
Intensive group therapy
Individual, family and recreational therapy
Psychological and/or psychiatric evaluations
Aftercare and transition services
On-site education - select locations offer day treatment (Columbus and Wooster) and residential programming (Wooster)

Programs are available in 11 locations throughout Ohio:

Akron

For over 60 years, The Village Network has created positive change for responsible living. For more information about the work we do, visit us on the web at www.thevillagenetwork.org.
