Project Patchwork works with parents and individuals, in early recovery, who are transitioning from residential treatment to the community. Project Patchwork provides housing for 6 months. Parents can bring children, of any age, into the program (although, the behavior of the children can be a consideration). Clients need to be on OHP. Ms. Hall will meet clients in inpatient programs to sign them up for one of Project Patchwork’s 23 apartments.
The houses and apartments are fully furnished with beds, toddler beds, cribs, new mattresses, sheets, and cleaning supplies. Some of the apartments are reserved for women and babies coming directly from birthing hospitals through Project Nurture (a program for pregnant women battling substance abuse). One of their houses is
exclusively for women and their babies. Project Patchwork also works with single fathers. They recently had a couple move into one of their apartments.
Project Patchwork offers “wrap-around” services which include case management, peer support, housing navigators, daycare, assistance with getting IDs, and referrals to culturally specific community resources. If a resident returns to use, they are not immediately terminated. In some instances the resident returns to inpatient treatment.
Residents take part in weekly meetings, are on geo-locators (in order to abide by curfews), and share in doing household chores. +
Project Pooch is a nonprofit organization that provides opportunities for youth at the MacLaren Youth Correctional Facility to develop the personal and vocational skills they need to become responsible, productive members of the community. The program accomplishes this by teaching youth to care for and train shelter dogs for adoption. The youth work with their dogs daily and practice the principles of positive reinforcement and behavior modification. As the trainers manage their dogs, they learn how to manage their own behavior. They also earn school credits, develop good work habits, and acquire valuable occupational skills.
The relationships, emotional support and mutual trust established between the trainers and dogs are pivotal to the success of the program. This bond helps the youth and the dogs develop the self-confidence and hope they need to build future relationships.
Youth develop responsibility, patience, and compassion for all life as they learn to train dogs and manage a kennel, and help dogs find their forever homes. +

For more than 25 years, Providence Adult Eating Disorders Treatment Program has helped patients recover from anorexia, bulimia, and atypical eating disorders.
Our treatment process begins with a thorough clinical assessment to address current and past eating practices and the physical and emotional consequences of these practices. This includes the evaluation of symptoms, such as depression, anxiety and substance use, as well as lifestyle factors, such as social support from family and friends.
Recommendations are made based on the assessment and may include either partial hospital or intensive outpatient levels of care. Both levels of care consist of ongoing psychiatric evaluation, group, individual, and family therapies, as well as nutrition and meal support.
As patients approach or re-approach treatment, their readiness and the timing of treatment are also considered. Recovery is a process that requires persistence, courage and effective treatment resources.
All services described below are offered in our clinic:
* Diagnostic evaluations - This is generally the first step in accessing our services. Evaluations address the severity of eating disorder symptoms and the impact they have on the individual’s ability to function. The evaluation interview addresses the history of the disorder, consideration of co-existing medical and psychiatric conditions, and motivational factors. It concludes with treatment recommendations and referrals.
* Informational meetings - A free informational meeting about eating disorders is held each Wednesday afternoon from 4:30 to 5:15. Any interested individual or family member may attend. Clinicians answer questions about treatment and recovery, and they discuss levels of care in this and other community settings.
* Ongoing physical assessment - Physicians meet with patients regularly to review symptoms and corresponding vital signs, such as weight, blood pressure, pulse and temperature. Program doctors order and interpret lab tests
and coordinate care with the patients’ primary care providers about the patients’ health status and recovery processes.
* Ongoing psychiatric assessment and medication management - Psychiatrists meet with patients to review their primary and secondary diagnoses and treatment progress. The psychiatrists also work actively with patients and program therapists to support patients in changing their problematic behaviors. Medication effectiveness is reviewed regularly, and recommendations may be made for new medications, changes in medication dosages or stopping medications.
* Eating disorders partial hospital - An intensive, structured full-day program offered five days a week. Patients participate in ongoing physical assessments; meal therapy groups; group and individual therapy; family therapy; nutritional evaluation and counseling; relapse prevention planning; and discharge planning.
* Group therapy and Individual therapy
* Care conferences may be scheduled with the treatment team, patient, and family to discuss the effectiveness of current interventions and next steps in treatment.
* Nutritional evaluation and counseling - Dietitians interview patients, review laboratory data and complete an assessment to determine nutrition risk and establish healthy weight and nutrition goals. Throughout patients’ treatment, the dietitians offer continual feedback and teach patients about healthy nutrition practices. They support patients’ growth toward healthy eating and weight stabilization.
* Therapeutic meal groups - Facilitated by therapists, these groups are opportunities for patients to practice healthy eating and symptom management in the structured, supportive and supervised setting of the treatment environment.
* Supported Living Service (SLS) – Providence Community Benefit Program to help selected adult patients practice skills learned in treatment to a home environment.
