“Praxes Behavioral Health was highly recommended to support Hanna Center as a consultant in developing our Short-Term Residential Therapeutic Program (STRTP) Plan of Operations and Program Statement. This project required meticulous detail outlining every operational component and therapeutic service essential to meeting rigorous regulatory standards.
Dan’s expertise was invaluable. He guided our team through defining daily operations, admissions processes, staffing requirements, health and safety protocols, and therapeutic and life skills programming. His contributions ensured both documents upheld the highest resident care and compliance standards. Dan’s consistent support and dedication were instrumental in moving this project forward efficiently; without him, we would have faced significant delays. Praxes Behavioral Health’s role in this process was indispensable to Hanna Center's success.”
Scott Singer, Hanna Center Vice President of Residential Programs

Over the years, he has provided our agency with invaluable training on various topics, including the Indian Child Welfare Act, Sexual and Reproductive Health for Foster Youth, the Core Practice Model, Intellectual Disabilities, and preparing youth for post-secondary education.
