Development of the RSVP Program
The RSVP Program is a five
session
group therapy program developed specifically for the Madison County
(Illinois) Juvenile Detention Center. The purpose of the program is to
allow youth to identify stress and stressors in their life, to learn
the relaxation techniques of deep breathing, progressive muscle
relaxation, and guided imagery, and to teach the importance of
relaxation techniques as an alternative to violence.
