The informative services which have been offered locally in Oregon are now expanding to outside of the state. "Our intention is to give parents another option when needing guidance about next steps for their child," says Dore Frances, M.A., executive director of Horizon Family Solutions, LLC.
"We assist parents with a comprehensive evaluation that covers education as well as psychological overviews and may include recommendations to a clinical boarding school, emotional growth program, step down program or at home program, serving as a resource as parents continue their decision making journey toward establishing goals for their child. This service is especially beneficial for those families that do not have, need or want the full services of an educational consultant, but need to make a life-changing decision about their child's next step."
Horizon Family Solutions emphasizes professional, quality services, hard work, integrity and honesty when assisting each and every child and their family.
Student Assessment Services create a little breathing room for a family who needs to assess next steps. The assessment guides the family towards insight into what may be the best option for long term success. The assessment accentuates the benefit of their current program and how it benefits in them also knowing what the child's next steps will be. The assessment is face-to-face with the student in their current environment, and allows solutions to be discussed with the family that is facing a next step struggling decision.
Located on Bend, Oregon, Dore Frances, M.A. has been accepted and recognized by the Circuit Court for the State of Oregon as a court approved Parent Coordinator, and is an active member of the American Bar Association, and the American School Counselor Association.
