Children have seemingly magical ability to overcome exposure to adversity if they and their families are given guidance and tools to build resilience and aid in recovery. At East Bay Agency for Children, we work every day so children impacted by trauma can ultimately reach their full potential.
Intensive Counseling Enriched classrooms are dual educational and therapeutic classrooms that enable children to learn techniques for self-regulating their emotions and behavior while receiving academic instruction. An EBAC behavioral health therapist works with each child to achieve goals based upon his or her individualized treatment plan. Behavioral coaches shadow the children all day long in the classroom providing real-time intervention and affirmation to support positive behavioral changes and self-regulation.
Circle of Care
Called "Circle of Care", the program offers simultaneous peer support groups for all family members, with parents/caregivers attending one group and toddlers, elementary school children and teenagers attending their own separate groups. Themed art and play activities are integrated into groups for younger children, while the adults often share practical strategies as well as their feelings. Groups are led by EBAC-trained volunteer facilitators, who contribute more than 3,000 hours of compassionate service every year. Fees and Payment:
Services are offered at modest cost, on a sliding scale based on financial means, although no one is turned away due to lack of funds.
