Model of Care

Lillian's has drawn from Bruce Perry's six (6) core strengths to frame its therapeutic care model for the young women in our program.


  • Attachment - making relationships

  • Self-regulation - containing impulses

  • Affiliation - being part of a group

  • Attunement - being aware of others

  • Tolerance - accept differences

  • Respect - finding value in differences


Each of these core strengths is a building block in a child's development.


By incorporating these core strengths into areas of assessment and achievement, Lillian's can help to build the capacity of each young woman.
