Goal Setting and Plan
A written 30, 60, and 90 day plan covering recovery, housing, work, family, and faith. Reviewed in person every week.
Each man works with a case manager on the practical steps that turn a stay at Brother's Place into a long-term plan.
Every man who walks through the doors at Brother's Place is paired with a dedicated case manager. That relationship is the engine of progress here. From the first week, the two sit down together and build a personalized plan that names the obstacles in front of him and identifies the services that can clear them.
Case management at Brother's Place is wraparound. It pulls together mental health services, addiction treatment, primary healthcare, public benefits like SNAP and Medicaid, housing vouchers, and employment resources. One person tracks all of it, so a resident is not left navigating fragmented systems on his own.
The work is one-on-one and accountable. Goals are written down. Progress is measured. Setbacks are addressed in person, not avoided. The result is a man who leaves Brother's Place with more than sobriety. He leaves with documentation, a benefits package, a healthcare provider, an employer, and a plan.
Four pillars of practical support, woven together into one plan for one man.

Linkage to mental health counseling, addiction treatment providers, and primary healthcare. We make the calls and ride along to the first appointments.
SNAP, Medicaid, disability, veteran benefits, ID and document recovery, and housing voucher applications. We guide men through the process so they understand what they're applying for and can manage it going forward.
Resume help, GED prep, interview practice, and direct employer connections. Employment is a goal we work toward from week one.
Case management is not a meeting. It is a sequence. Here is what the first ninety days look like for a man at Brother's Place.
Initial interview, basic needs assessment, ID check, room assignment, and introduction to the case manager he will work with throughout the program.
Sit-down planning session. Name the obstacles. Set the first written goals across recovery, health, housing, work, and family.
Apply for SNAP and Medicaid, schedule a primary care appointment, and connect with mental health and addiction treatment providers.
Resume finalized, first interviews underway. The goal is employment within the first month — GED prep runs alongside where needed.
Formal progress review with the case manager. What worked, what did not, what changes for the next month.
Second progress review. Employment stability, savings, healthcare engagement, and family reconciliation are evaluated together.
Transition planning begins. Permanent housing options, ongoing benefits, aftercare community, and alumni support are all mapped out.
