Intensive Family Support through Multi-Systemic Therapy (MST)

MST helps fragile families cope with out-of-control teenagers. The program provides three-to-four months of almost daily support by highly trained professionals using a highly structured system.  The program is based on a model developed and researched by the MST Institute that has proven success in reducing re-offending by juvenile offenders.

CV is the largest provider in New York State of MST and is designated a Network Partner with MST Services. CV has MST teams operating in the New York City, Westchester County, and Long Island.  CV’s MST teams are reintegrating youthful offenders into their communities and preventing troubled kids from needing to be removed from their families. Both of these strategies are saving hundreds of thousands of dollars each year in reduced incarceration and residential placement costs.
