- Programming designed specifically to support alumni, including individualized follow up, events, retreats and more.
An evidence-based approach to healing
Our treatment approach is an evidence-based perspective that utilizes behavioral interventions to address behavioral health symptoms while simultaneously seeking to understand the underlying meaning and function of behaviors.
Evidence-based interventions are congruent across ERC Pathlight's programming, creating a common language from which to approach treatment.
