About Alouette Homes
Connective is partnering with Vancouver Coastal Health to operate a unique new model of care that allows people with severe and persistent mental illness and co-occurring disorders to live outside a hospital setting in a supported, longer-term home environment.
Alouette Homes is designed to support up to 20 people who require long-term psychiatric and social rehabilitation care in a secure group setting. The program will offer an improved quality of life with outdoor space and increased communal living and activity spaces while providing the security and staff needed for this phase of the residents’ rehabilitation.
Connective is committed to a holistic, collaborative, person-centered, and trauma-informed approach that tailors our support to each resident’s unique needs. The program at Alouette is grounded in evidence-based strategies that integrates positive behavioural support with psychosocial interventions to promote recovery, resilience, and meaningful engagement in life.
We are also committed to prioritizing Indigenous perspectives and providing supports that will help Indigenous residents connect with their culture and get the support they deserve. We will engage in collaborative clinical partnerships to promote traditional healing, cultural teachings, and practice, and promote understanding and respect for Indigenous culture, experience, and identity.
The goal of the program is to help residents meet their personal goals and needs, increase their housing stability, and minimize returns to acute care sites.
