Our Services

Services offered:

Highly individualized care.
Each individual's strengths, weaknesses, and interests are assessed in order to map out the activities most likely to encourage pro-social behavior and the development of healthy relationships with both adults and peers.
‍
A nurturing environment.
Our trained live-in houseparents, assisted by other direct-care staff, maintain a home-like atmosphere in the facilities. Group and individual counseling and recreational therapy are provided. Residents also interact with other staff members, Board members, and community sponsors.
‍
Diversified educational resources.
The Home offers in-home tutoring and has a good working relationship with the San Angelo Independent School District. Residents have supervised access to computers and to the Internet.
Family counseling services. CVHG counselors are available to meet with family members if deemed necessary in the child's service plan.
‍
Transitional services for children leaving care.
Our Transition Center for young people leaving foster care for independent living offers assistance in finding a place to live, budgeting, finding a job, and other issues which arise for the individual.  For girls returning to their families after leaving care, CVHG aids in planning the transition and helping both the child and the family identify and develop ways of dealing with likely problem areas.

Placement procedures:

For consideration of an applicant, a common application and current psychological evaluation are required. School records and social history are requested. A pre-placement interview is also required, either in person or, if distance makes a personal visit impractical, by telephone.
Partial funding for programs received from Texas Department of Family and Protective Services.
