The California OnTrack Work Study aftercare program is for people ages 18+ of who have completed our 4 month intensive day treatment. Participants engage in our work-study program to build on the substantial progress already achieved in the initial intensive four months of day treatment.
Our outcome data suggests that maximum long-term results are achieved by those who continue in our work-study program for an additional 6-8 months after the initial intensive day program. Work-study programming takes place during 4 hours / day for 2 days and then 1 day per week.
All aspects of the program stress Supported Education and Employment (SEE), which is a foundational component of our augmented coordinated specialty care model. We provide resources and coaching for achieving educational and employment goals. Participants are encouraged to apply and are supported in the process of returning to academics or finding meaningful work.
Extended psychosocial interventions combined with expert medication management enables those affected by psychosis to overcome the practical and psychological barriers to work or school. A combination of life coaching, assisted searching, practicing interviewing skills, and situational role play complement the social skills training delivered throughout our programming day.
