[QUOTE="Star*, post: 337009, member: 4964"] SW, There aren't very many publicly announced programs here BECAUSE most of the programs that our state has are saved for kids who are wards of the court or foster care kids. Kids like mine who have a parent or two are pretty much on their own. I know this because we begged for some kind of program for Dude to go into when he got out of Department of Juvenile Justice and we were told he could come home to us. If WE refused to take him then WE were going to jail. We said fine - take us. WE need the vacation. We stood firm and eventually our caseworker worked with the staff at Department of Juvenile Justice and they came up with the group home (that we ultimately had shut down it was so lovely). From there he went into Foster care. As far as prison and county jail I know there are camps and programs for adult children, but the place I would contact here would be the Department of Probation and Parole. Hope this is of some help.
