Assessment

All prospective residential students participate in a six-day evaluation and skills assessment. During this week, the prospective resident follows a typical Chapel Haven schedule.

The visit is intended to be a mutual assessment; the prospective resident has the opportunity to assess Chapel Haven and Chapel Haven can determine if we can best meet the needs of the prospective resident. In this way, the evaluation period is an essential part of creating an individualized plan to achieve a successful transition to independence.
