Intensive Outpatient Clinic Ribbon Cutting
L-R: Dr. Michele Conner, Director, Mental Health Outpatient Treatment & Rehabilitative Services/Budget Performance Specialist at Astor; Dr. Todd Karlin, Astor’s Chief Program Officer; City of Poughkeepsie Mayor Yvonne Flowers; Jim Raimo, Astor Board Member; Danielle Maiorano, Intensive Outpatient Program Director at Astor; and Megan York, Hudson Valley Regional Director of Outpatient Clinics at Astor.
Astor Services officially unveiled its Intensive Outpatient Clinic in Poughkeepsie with a ribbon cutting and tour of the facility. The program provides a safe space for children ages 6-12 showing significant impairment in school or home to explore their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors with a therapist, and develop healthy coping mechanisms. The program aims to prevent residential treatment. City of Poughkeepsie Mayor Yvonne Flowers was on hand, along with a representative of Senator Rob Rolison to help mark the opening of this program, designed to help youth who are at risk of out-of-home placement.
The clinic is located at 46 Lincoln Avenue in Poughkeepsie, NY.
