INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY

Apostolic Youth & Family Service evaluates each student using the Casey Life Skills Program These assessments evaluate the life skills of youths and young adults. The Ansell-Casey Life Skills Assessment (ACLSA) is an evaluation of youth independent living skills. It consists of statements about life skills that the youth and his/her caregivers complete.

HOW IT WORKS

The ACLSA was designed to be as free as possible from gender, ethnic, and cultural biases. It is appropriate for all youths regardless of living circumstances, whether with one parent, in foster care, in group homes or in other places.
