Residential & Clinical Services

Noble Vision Behavior Health provides 24-hour group home and residential services for youth who cannot live safely in a family home or independently. Our homes are operated as homes, not institutions, and are staffed around the clock by trained professionals who offer supervision, support, and skill-building opportunities. Services are designed to be trauma-informed, person-centered, and culturally responsive, with a strong focus on community integration and long-term stability.

  • Structured Group Home Living - Supervised, home-like environments operated as homes, not facilities, with predictable routines, shared responsibilities, and clear expectations that help youth feel safe and grounded.
  • Therapeutic Interventions - Evidence-based and trauma-informed interventions focused on coping skills, emotional regulation, social skills, and daily living skills, delivered by qualified staff under clinical oversight.
  • Admission & Continued Stay - Admission, level of care, and continued stay are driven by clinical need, functional impairment, and safety considerations. Our goal is to provide the least restrictive setting that can safely meet the youth’s needs while actively planning for transition to family or community-based living.
  • Community Integration - Support for school attendance, family visitation, community activities, and age-appropriate responsibilities so that youth continue to learn, socialize, and participate in everyday life while in care.

What to Expect in the Home

Daily Rhythm & Routines

Life in a Noble Vision Behavior Health home is structured to feel predictable, safe, and supportive. Residents follow a daily rhythm that balances school or day programming, household responsibilities, skill-building activities, recreation, and personal time. Staff provide reminders, coaching, and encouragement throughout the day so that youth can practice time management, self-care, and respectful communication in a real home environment.

  • Mornings - Wake-up at a consistent time, complete personal hygiene, tidy rooms, and prepare for school or day services with staff support as needed.
  • Daytime - School attendance, therapeutic or skill-building activities, appointments, and community outings, coordinated with guardians and providers.
  • Evenings - Shared meals, homework or independent living skills practice, group activities, and time for relaxation with peers in common areas.
  • Overnight - Quiet hours support uninterrupted sleep and safety checks. Staff remain awake and available to respond to needs, concerns, or crises.

House Expectations & Staff Support

Residents are part of a shared home, and everyone contributes to keeping the environment respectful, clean, and safe. Staff clearly explain house rules, rights, and responsibilities at admission and review them regularly so that youth understand what is expected and how to ask for help. Expectations are designed to protect each person’s safety and dignity while promoting independence and healthy decision-making.

  • Respectful interactions - Using respectful language and behavior with peers, staff, visitors, and neighbors; avoiding bullying, threats, or harassment.
  • Shared spaces - Caring for common areas, participating in household chores, and respecting others’ personal space and belongings.
  • Visitors - Following visitation guidelines, communicating about guests in advance when required, and ensuring visitors respect house rules.
  • Safety & wellness - Complying with medication, safety, and supervision plans; telling staff about safety concerns; and participating in crisis or safety planning.
  • Voice & choice - Sharing preferences about food, hygiene products, activities, and goals so staff can partner with youth in developing individualized plans.

 

Our Culture & Values

Our Daily Mantra

Our daily mantra reminds both youth and staff that meaningful change takes time, effort, and repeated practice. We encourage each resident to invest in themselves by showing up, trying new skills, and staying engaged even when tasks feel difficult or uncomfortable. Staff model patience, persistence, and encouragement, helping youth practice new behaviors until they become healthy habits. We celebrate small steps, emphasize progress over perfection, and frame setbacks as opportunities to learn, grow, and try again.

Humility

Humility at Noble Vision Behavior Health means recognizing that every person—youth, family member, and staff—has inherent worth and something important to offer. We stay open-minded and honest about our own strengths and limitations, and we welcome feedback from the individuals we serve, their families, and our colleagues. Humility asks us to listen before we judge, to apologize and repair when we make mistakes, and to approach each person’s story with respect rather than assumptions.

Our Daily Mantra

Building skills takes time and effort. Our daily mantra reminds youth that investing time, being active in their own development, and tolerating some discomfort are all part of growing stronger. We expect mistakes and use them as learning opportunities. We welcome feedback and coaching and encourage practice until new skills become habits. In every home, we repeat this message so that youth understand: you are worth the effort, and you do not have to grow alone.

Humility

Humility at Noble Vision Behavior Health means recognizing that we all have strengths and limitations. Staff and leaders are expected to be open-minded, to listen to youth and families, and to be willing to adjust when something is not working. We value the contributions of each person in the home and avoid acting superior or dismissive. Humility helps us stay teachable, honest, and focused on what is best for the youth we serve.

Code of Behavior

Our Code of Behavior outlines the professional and ethical standards that guide our work every day. We are responsible for bringing out the best in the youth and families we serve by maintaining safe boundaries, using respectful language, and avoiding any behavior that could be shaming, threatening, or retaliatory. Staff are expected to be on time, prepared, and fully engaged; to protect confidentiality; to avoid conflicts of interest; and to report safety concerns or policy violations immediately. We comply with all applicable rules and regulations and hold ourselves accountable for acting with integrity, even when no one is watching.

Frequently Asked Questions

On your first day at Noble Vision Behavior Health, staff will greet you, help you get settled, and walk you through what to expect in the home. You will receive an orientation to your room and shared spaces, a review of basic house guidelines, and an introduction to key staff who will be supporting you. We know that arriving in a new place can be stressful, so we move at a pace that allows time for questions, breaks, and reassurance. During admission, we review important information about your history, strengths, and needs, explain your rights and responsibilities, and begin to learn about your goals. You are encouraged to tell us what helps you feel safe and calm, who is important in your life, and how we can best support you. Our goal is for you to leave the first day with clear information about routines, how to ask for help, and what the next few days will look like.

Noble Vision Behavior Health provides residential care and behavioral health services for youth who need a structured, supervised home environment and additional support with emotional, behavioral, and daily living needs. Admission is usually coordinated through guardians, case workers, care managers, or referral agencies. Before admission, we review information about your needs, safety considerations, and current supports to make sure our program is an appropriate level of care. If placement is approved, we schedule an admission date, gather consents, and plan for transportation. During the first several days, the team will complete additional assessments and work with you and your guardian to finalize an individualized plan of care. The plan outlines goals, services, safety supports, and discharge or transition planning so that everyone understands the purpose of the placement and how progress will be measured.

Families, guardians, and other important supports play a critical role in care at Noble Vision Behavior Health.

We take all concerns seriously and aim to review and respond in a timely manner. When possible, we will work with you and your guardian to resolve the issue and, when needed, use what we learn to strengthen our services and improve the experience of residents and families.
