Programs at Phyllis Wheatley are based on a family strength model, a holistic approach to engage people in decision making that empowers them within the context of family and community. Phyllis Wheatley uses research and outcome-based strategies to help individuals and families achieve the results they desire. Phyllis Wheatley programs represent a vision that is formed around its storied history and adapted to meet the needs of the diverse community it serves today.
