Mental well-being is not just a trend for May, it should be a daily priority. Take the time to check in with yourself, practice self-care, reach out for support if needed, or lend an ear to someone in need. Let’s create a community of compassion year-round. Remember, your well-being matters.

How do YOU prioritize your well-being daily?

TESTIMONIAL

"Seeing our son evolve is remarkable. He is becoming such a fine young man, and much of the growth and positive changes we see in him are thanks to the extraordinary work ethic and dedication Telos has instilled in him. His resilience and maturity reflect the skills and values he learned at Telos.

I will always be so thankful for Telos. You saved our child in our family; I will never forget that."

Attending an AA group is more than just a meeting – it’s a community of support, strength, and understanding. Overcoming substance abuse is a challenging journey, but you don’t have to do it alone. Being part of an AA, CA, or MA group offers a safe space to share, learn, and grow with others who truly understand what you’re going through.

The power of connection and shared experiences can help you stay on track, find encouragement, and rebuild sobriety. That's why attending meetings regularly is an integral part of The Carter House schedule.

Pillar 4: The Effective Teacher

A key component of being an effective staff member is applying sound parenting principles. Telos staff act as surrogate parents in many ways, guiding and supporting students as they navigate their personal growth. Pillar Four outlines the principles and behaviors that define an effective parent, principles we embrace in our approach.

Effective parenting involves tailoring guidance, mentoring, and coaching to meet the unique needs of each individual. This requires considering factors like the student’s chronological age, developmental stage, capacity for self-regulation, and their specific need for external support and adaptations. Additionally, it’s important to assess their overall maturity. We can provide the most appropriate and impactful support by aligning our approach with these individual differences, helping each student thrive.

His influence extends far and wide, and he’s a driving force in building a strong sense of brotherhood among his teams. Always ready to jump in at a moment’s notice, he’s the kind of teammate who leads by example, often making personal sacrifices to support the greater good. Thank you, Sou, for all you do and are!
