Murack Lodge holds weekly meetings facilitated by the Social Worker or Staff. Resident's participation in the program is mandatory.
15. Aftercare Services: An aftercare follow-up program will be designed for each resident who is leaving Murack Lodge and remaining in the Jackson vicinity. Aftercare will include scheduled meetings to be conducted both at Murack Lodge and at the home of the resident. The purpose of these meetings will be to further organize and maintain a weekly budget and the development of short as well as long term plans. Each resident will keep in touch with his advisor twice weekly to accomplish this goal. Scheduled meetings will take place with each resident's advisor for 3 months after release from the program. Visits will be made to the new residency of the youth by the advisor that was in charge of the release plan.
