Cornerstone

Best-Practice Treatment Program

The Cornerstone Program was created as a best-practice treatment program for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and sexual boundary violations, living residentially at Mountain Lake Services.

The program offers individual counseling, weekly treatment groups and therapeutic environments in home services settings. The participants have Risk Management Plans to ensure personal and community safety.

All individuals in the program are screened for risk manageability by trained clinicians and through consultation with an international consultant and are based on a philosophy of reduced supervision rather than containment.
