			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The 2012 Waste Management Phoenix Open &#8220;The Greatest Show on Grass&#8221; begins January 30, 2012. You can help The New Foundation (TNF) receive BONUS bucks from the tournament just by pledging one penny through the Birdies for Charity program&#8230; just repond to this e-mail and I will personally make that pledge for you.</p>
<p>The biggest incentive for TNF to participate is that when we reach a minimum of $500 in pledges Thunderbirds Charities will match 10% of the total amount of pledges collected at the end of the Open. That is, if we collect $10,000 worth of pledges we will receive an additional $1,000; making each of your pledges essentially worth 110% of their value.</p>
<p>You don’t need to be a golf enthusiast or even a fan of the game to participate in the Birdies for Charity Program. What is important is that by participating you’ll be helping TNF continue providing the highest quality, individualized, strength-based treatment to children and families in crisis.</p>
<p>We hope you will consider helping TNF today. If you would prefer to make the pledge yourself, please download the pledge form and return it to The New Foundation at 1200 N. 77th Street, Scottsdale, AZ 85257.</p>
<p>Or visit www.birdiesforcharityaz.com and select The New Foundation as your charity of choice. The deadline to receive pledges is February 5, 2012. Should you have any questions, please call me at 480-945-3302 ext 121. Thank you!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In 30 days,  we aim to give youth the skills to stabilize their behavioral concerns by helping them develop and utilize coping skills to maintain positive behaviors and recovery in their mental health struggles. </p>
<p>The New Foundation’s ISI Program offers a unique intervention experience for adolescents who are struggling with mental health and behavioral issues.  Applying TNF’s strengths-based guiding principles, we utilize evidence-based treatment modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Motivational Interviewing (MI)</p>
<p><strong><em> </em></strong><strong><em>How will I know if my child is in need of an Intensive Stabilization Intervention?<span id="more-118"></span></em></strong></p>
<p>Every child and situation is different but The New Foundation uses a strengths based model to help create success for any situation.  Here are few instances where a stabilization intervention would help:</p>
<p><strong>When stabilization would be helpful</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Transition from a hospitalization.</li>
<li>Families in crisis</li>
<li>Self harming behaviors</li>
<li>Suicidal ideations</li>
<li>Teens transitioning from detention.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Service modalities offered:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Psychiatric services</li>
<li>Attendance at Marion Burton School</li>
<li>Group Therapy daily</li>
<li>Individual therapy weekly</li>
<li>Family Therapy weekly</li>
<li>Family Group weekly</li>
<li>Child and Family Team meetings</li>
</ul>
<p>Once the 30 days are completed, we have different options available for youth and families who wish to continue with the treatment and recovery process. </p>
<p>Our clinical staff consists of licensed and professionally trained counselors, social workers and psychiatrists who specialize in providing treatment for adolescents and families struggling with:</p>
<p>Mood disorders</p>
<p>Bipolar disorders</p>
<p>Anxiety disorders</p>
<p>Depressive disorders</p>
<p>Substance abuse disorders</p>
<p>Behaviors problems</p>
<p>Family dynamics<strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Questions? Concerns?  If you believe your child may benefit from any one of our programs, please contact our Admissions Office at (480) 945-3302, ext. 125.</strong><strong></strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you ever had to make cookies or bake a cake?  It is a lot of fun; especially, eating the cookie dough.  Let&#8217;s say one day you are making some chocolate chip cookies and you are mixing your ingredients and you notice that you are out of sugar.  What do you do?  Well, you can do one of two things:</p>
<ol>
<li>You can stop and go get some sugar</li>
<li>You can continue to make the cookies without sugar</li>
</ol>
<p>Yuck&#8230; cookies without sugar is pointless, right?  Think about it; they would taste horrible!  It is important to take the time to get what you need so that your cookies can be great.  Isn&#8217;t that the same for life?  If you don&#8217;t stop and get what you need, your life may not turn out as &#8220;sweet&#8221; as it could.</p>
