How does a child or family qualify for the STARRY Counseling Program?
In order to be eligible for services under our Counseling Program, one of the following must be present: Family conflict; truancy, runaway or delinquent behavior; or misdemeanor criminal offense. School counselors, juvenile services, pastors or parents most often refer children. STARRY counselors visit with the child and his or her parent or guardian regarding the program and goals the child and the family hope to accomplish through the program. An individualized action plan is established to resolve issues and to prevent further destructive behavior or family conflict.
