Transitional Age Youth Program (TAYP)
An award-winning, outcomes-backed program for youth (ages 18-25), Stars TAY Program is located in San Leandro. Based in research-based clinical practices, these targeted therapeutic, case management and community support services help young adults remain in community living, occupational, and educational settings. The program works with those who have severe and persistent mental health disabilities. The program serves youth that are exiting children’s services, receiving adult mental health services in need of age-appropriate support, and those with no mental health service history or those who have only accessed county crisis programs.
TAYP provides intensive case management, outreach and engagement, medication support, as well as, mental health counseling, peer groups, and supportive services to assist TAY transition to adult life. The goals for TAY are designed to improve personal wellness and community life functioning, care and prevention, as well as, daily living skills that promote healthy living and independence.
Stars TAY program is supported by mental health clinicians, case managers, peer mentors, and a psychiatrist, whom all collaborate for TAY treatment. The referral process is generally made by family members, county crisis programs, counselors, and foster family agencies. Clinicians may use the TAT referral form to make referral to the Transition Age Team (TAT), which meets weekly to review cases. Referrals through Alameda County Behavioral Health Services are also available.
School Success Program
The School success Program, which is funded through the Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnosis and Treatment program, provides supportive services and partners with students, families, school staff, and other community partners to help students succeed socially and academically. Supportive services, which take place on campus and in the community, may include:
- Individual and/or Family Therapeutic Services to focus on matters affecting school success and social or family relationships, such as trauma and transition.
- Behavioral Support to help students strengthen skills (communication, decision making, problem solving, coping) to enhance classroom and social success. This support can take place during class session, if needed.
- Groups to help students strengthen social and life skills and to help families strengthen relationships and support systems.
- Case Management to link students with community services or other additional supports related to individual and family needs.
