Your Journey Starts Here
Tim Thayne had a career crisis, when he realized how many families struggle even after years of therapy and tens of thousands of dollars in adolescent treatment programs for their sons or daughters. His mission began by going to the research on what makes change last, creating Homeward Bound to enter the homes of the families to teach, coach, and coordinate the parents and the community. But not all families could afford that level of service.
Today, the Not by Chance Parent Program is the fulfillment of the dream to make excellent aftercare available to every family through technology, tools, and time tested expertise.
