The Friendship Club provides a year-round program in Western Nevada County serving girls at risk in grades 6-12. Girls meet after school during the school year, attend field trips and other activities during school breaks, and participate in summer camps and enrichment activities throughout the summer.

Girls are grouped into cohorts by grade level and stay with their group until they graduate high school. Participation is free, as are all the activities, field trips, and camps. Nutritious meals are provided every time girls are with us.

All girls are referred to the program by their schools and other youth-serving professionals during their fifth grade year and start the summer before they enter sixth grade. The goal is for them to participate in the program until they graduate high school. Referrals for girls in other grades are also accepted as long as there is space available in their cohort.

Every activity and experience builds on the next and our programs intertwine to create a safe… [read more]

Offers residential substance abuse treatment for men and women. Consists of individual and group counseling, individual psychotherapy, recreation, exercise, and a specialized nutrition plan.

Dr. Loriene Honda approaches her work from a strengths-based perspective, focusing on helping clients to access their innate strengths as they progressively gain more insight on how their past experiences, family-of-origin dynamics, and personal challenges might inform and influence the decisions they make today in their relationships and approach to life.

Her style is interactive, client-centered, and compassionate, and she often incorporates a solution-focused approach through the use of cognitive-behavioral techniques.

Whenever clinically-appropriate and possible, she invites parents and primary caregivers to participate through "check-ins" at the beginning of sessions so that she may more accurately target issues of importance and concern from both the parent's/caregiver's and child's perspective.
