Holston United Methodist Home for Children
Brumit Center is a supervised independent living program for youth in extension of foster care services on the campus of Holston United Methodist Home for Children. Youth in this program are required to have a least part time employment and be enrolled in an educational program (high school, post- secondary, or trade school). Brumit Center youth may attend our on-campus school, River Academy, where students have the opportunity to earn a diploma through a traditional program, credit recovery, or preparing for and passing the HiSet. In addition to having round the clock, live-in staff, each youth at Brumit is assigned a Child and Family Specialist to provide counseling and case management services. An Independent Living Coordinator is also assigned to each youth that assists them in enrolling in a post-secondary program, securing a driver’s license, exploring career interests, obtaining employment, and locating housing after completing extension of foster care services.
