After-School & Outreach

May Institute offers a number of programs to support at-risk children and adolescents and/or those with behavioral healthcare issues.

The Therapeutic After-School Program (TAP) is a clinical program designed to meet the needs of high-risk children between the ages of 8 and 13 and to promote stabilization and re-integration into the community. A high staff-to-child ratio (2:1) ensures individualized support and guidance. The program provides support in the following areas:

Group Treatment
Skills Training
Homework Assistance
Socialization
Family Support

Therapeutic After-School Programs are available through the May Counseling Center in West Roxbury and through Children and Teen Connections in New Bedford, Massachusetts. A Massachusetts Department of Mental Health referral is necessary.

Children and Teen Connections in New Bedford, Massachusetts, also provides one-on-one support to high-risk adolescents and young adults ages 16-18 through consultation with families, one-on-one skills training, and community-based opportunities for socialization.

Children’s Services
May Institute also offers consultation services for children ages 4-19 in southeastern Massachusetts. These services, which assist children and their families in the home setting, provide behavior management and links to additional resources. Services are provided through Children's Services at Hyland Clinic in Fall River, Massachusetts.
