Where do we go from here‪?‬ Danielle Crescione

Ok, this is going to get crazy! I’m going to have a few guests to explain Bare Minimum Mondays and Silent Protesting. Why, how, and where’s this going?

Rayna Brown sits down with me to discuss her work at the Hope Center in Springfield Massachusetts. 

I am so excited to be talking with Rashida tonight. She has an extensive and impressive resume. She graduated from Springfield College with a Masters in Education and Educational Counseling. She then went on to work as the Regional Director of Residential Services for Northeast Center for Youth and Families. From there she went back to her hometown of St Croix and worked as the Deputy Commissioner for the Juvenile Justice Division of the Department of Human Services in the US Virgin Islands, and now is currently the Director of Juvenile Justice with the Center for Human Development. She walks us through the process of residential living for adjudicated youth and so much more! 

Today I am so proud to have my daughter, Sarah with me. We are going to discuss in detail the process of involuntarily committing someone to treatment. I hope you are able to take a listen to Sarah talk about her journey through treatment both voluntarily and involuntarily. 

Please join me and my daughter Sarah talk about her journey through voluntary and involuntary treatment and the process of what a Section 35 looks like in the state of Massachusetts.
