Jordan seems like a boy who is in need of counseling to help him figure out where he wants to go with his life, along with placing Jordan in drug and alcohol counseling to help him stop his drinking. Jordan may reject the counseling but it would be important for him to do if he does plan on moving into his own place with the independent living program. It may be good to get Jordan to talk to an advisor about finances so he learns how to spend efficiently while living alone. When thinking about informal supports it would be important to direct Jordan to talk to some close friends rather than keeping things in. If close friends don’t work maybe he has some family members to talk to, for instance, an elder. Considering that Jordan is Aboriginal it would be important to discuss with Jordan about getting his family involved in his case realizing that Aboriginals are big on working with the elders and others within the community to heal. If he chose to work with his Aboriginal family it is important to understand that aboriginals focus on a holistic approach to healing.
