An STRTP program built around the young people we serve.
Jiji's Foundation exists to support children and adolescents who need a Short-Term Residential Therapeutic Program setting that is both clinically responsive and deeply humane. We combine structure, relationship-based care, and coordinated planning for what happens after treatment.
Therapeutic care that protects progress.
To provide STRTP care where youth can stabilize, heal, and build daily functioning through a safe environment, consistent relationships, and a treatment team working toward measurable goals.
A stronger path beyond residential care.
We envision every youth leaving residential care with stronger coping skills, a more stable support system, and a clear transition into family reunification, foster care, or another appropriate least-restrictive setting.
"Care must be structured enough to heal and warm enough to trust."
Jiji believed children feel the difference between being managed and being genuinely cared for. That lesson shaped how we think about residential treatment: young people need clear clinical structure, but they also need adults who stay calm, stay present, and keep showing up.
Jiji's Foundation carries that standard into STRTP care. We build programs where treatment, education, family work, and daily living are connected — so every youth is known, safe, and better prepared for the next chapter.

What we stand on.
Dignity
Every youth is treated as a whole person with strengths, preferences, and a voice in their care plan.
Clinical Partnership
Therapists, educators, caseworkers, and direct-care staff work from shared goals instead of disconnected plans.
Family Connection
We keep family engagement central whenever safe and appropriate because healing rarely happens in isolation.
Integrity
We communicate clearly, document thoroughly, and align our program decisions with each youth's treatment needs.
