Admission
Process
It is important for Heartlight to receive a detailed explanation of the current situation and background information on a potential Heartlight resident through the use of the Admission Application. This, along with any other psychological or counseling reports, is helpful in providing an accurate perspective of the present and past problems that are contributing to the need for your child being placed in an alternative living environment.
Please provide additional information on the Medical History Form and the Adolescent Application. Please fax, e-mail or mail these back to Heartlight as soon as possible, along with a picture of your child. An interview will then be scheduled for you to visit Heartlight, so you can meet the staff, and we can meet you and your child.
Then, an interview will be scheduled on-campus after all information has been received. Heartlight needs to make an adequate assessment of the information concerning your child prior to your Heartlight visit. An interview at the Heartlight facility is necessary because a view of the other residents and the staff, as well as the facility itself is paramount in placing your child with our program. Much can be learned by our staff counselors from intereacting with you and your child face to face.
Heartlight operates on a first come, first serve basis when filling vacancies, so your promptness in sending material back to us, and setting up an interview, is paramount.
Please contact our Director of Admissions if you have any questions. Know that there are a number of folks here that are praying for God's direction about being involved with you in this current situation.
