HOPE PLAN & NEEDS ANALYSIS
Outlined hereunder is a basic plan and Needs Analysis of the Home of Positive
Encounters also referred to as HOPE. It gives an outline and also an estimate of the needs of the facility at this present time.
The system implemented would endeavor to build and achieve purpose through intensive support systems. By having such a facility and trained staff to deal with abused kids and young adults in a professional and humane manner the chances of these children and young adults achieving closure are great. In producing survivors our society surely would benefit and as a nation we would undoubtedly turn out much better successors and a stronger national fabric. In order for healing to begin the patient or client must be placed in an atmosphere
where same can be done and the benefit to the client would be of such that healing would be inevitable.
Home of Positive Encounters will provide an environment where the focus
would be on treatment, education and training
for the client while providing services to those
in need of a place of safety as it pertains to the
court system, and working along with parents in
order to achieve that common goal.
Method
We would Teach Counsel Mentor and
train in an effort to help gain closure
to those so in need. Enquiry would
determine the therapy so desired. The
population will consist of children and
young adults between the ages of 0-21
years and treatment would be of a
professional nature where the physical
as well as the psychological and social
aspect of healing would be adhered to.
Review
Delinquency rates have always been a
concern in Trinidad and Tobago, with
most crimes being committed in the
age group of 14years to twenty-four
years. Most of the murder victims
from gang related offences also fall in
this age group. Murders for the year
2014 averaged over one a day making
the grand total of over 400. This is
very frightening as about two-thirds of
the victims are young men in the 16-24
age groups. Lately we have seen
women and children included to a
large extent. This sort of information
shows the flaw in society’s failure of
the system, and the ills that threaten
the very fabric of our nation. This
system appears to be limited and
concentrate on punishment after the
fact instead of rehabilitation. Juvenile
offenders are viewed as those who
cause the problem rather than the
effect.
Low income and high school dropout
rates could be blamed for this but there
well may be high rates of abuse that have
not been dealt with that can also
contribute. Delinquent behavior is one
way in which victims set up barriers for
survival. When all factors are taken into
consideration, and dealt with then maybe
young offenders would be looked upon as
being able to mature into successful
adults who obey the law.
Even when juveniles and young adults
commit crimes and are incarcerated, on
re-entering the population little or
nothing is done to assist with the transfer
back into community life and the sore
leaves its offensive odor lingering on
society. This sort of information shows
the flaw in society’s failure of the system,
and the ills that threaten the very fabric
of our society.
A Facility of this sort is needed because:
1. There is a great need for treating
victims of abuse in a holistic setting.
2. Well rounded and productive
leaders are required in society, and
because most evidence of abuse
cannot be seen, the need to deal with
it is so much more acute.
3. Early intervention is needed, the
earlier the intervention the greater
the scope for closure.
4. There is an urgent need for such a
facility in our country.
The Home of Positive Encounters
Also referred to as H.O.P.E is such a
facility.
Our Registered office is Located at No.
37 Casablanca Crescent, Malabar
Arima and the facility is located at 31
Christina Gardens Arima. We are a
non-profit body catering to the needs
of children and young adults who are
surviving abuse.
Our Vision
To see abused youth achieve as high a
standard of life as possible, by helping
them as they build and achieve
purpose through intensive support
mechanism.
Our MissionTo provide a place of safety and
shelter for abused children and young
adults, while working with them to
bring about healing, using the
necessary professional help in a
holistic setting.
Structure
The center/home became a registered
body on November 9th 2012. It is
structured to include learning,
therapy and recreation. It will
include a clinic, learning Centre, as
well as recreational facilities. There is
a staff that would include 1
psychiatrist on call as needed, 1
clinical psychologist 1 counseling
therapist; I registered nurse, 1 nursing
assistant, tutors as well as domestic
and security personnel, all of whom
are required to work on a part time or
on a volunteer basis.
The home/Centre is a non-profit
organization and we are presently
managed by a board of directors,
however we have not been able to
function to our full capacity because of
a lack of funds and space. All the
funding that we have acquired has
been done through fund raising
ventures that we ourselves have done.
No funding has been given as yet by
government so we must do our work
based on the kind hearted actions of
our supporters. We have acquired the
services of a Health Administrator
who would do Risk Management and
Performance Improvement and
Administration. These suggestions are
subject to changes where required.
Maximum number of persons
administered to at any given time
would be twelve.
Breakdown in cost for 1 year is as follows: Rent: $96,000 Salaries: $600,000 based on part time assistanceStationery: $12,000 Food: $30,000 Miscellaneous: $24,000 Cost per client per day: $45Cost per client per month: $1350.Cost per Client per Year: $16200.Cost per 12 clients: per year: $194,400Total: $956,400
This total is minus the cost of furniture
some of which are donations.
Thanks for reading our plan
and reviewing our needs. We
hope that you would see the
urgency of meeting this need,
and assist us so to do.
Respectfully Submitted,
