Description

Provides individualized intensive treatment for boys and girls that are unable to remain in their own homes due to their behavioral and emotional needs. Staff provide treatment in small-group settings to help children overcome the obstacles and traumatic experiences that may affect their behaviors and prevent them from living at home. Through dedicated care, treatment, and supervision, children learn the skills needed to prepare for discharge back home or to another type of residence. The Residential Treatment Center, certified by the Office of Child and Family Services, is a 16 bed residential treatment program that serves boys ages 5-14 who exhibit severe emotional disturbance and require a structured, 24 hour per day treatment program that cannot be found in either their own home or a foster care setting, even with intensive in-home services. The program provides trauma informed care, with the primary goal of returning the child back to the family or another permanent resource. The Residential Treatment Facility, certified through the Office of Mental Health, serves children ages 5-14 who have an acute primary psychiatric disability. Children are provided a full milieu of therapeutic services, including psychiatric services, therapeutic recreation, nursing, crisis prevention, and intensive therapy right on campus, as well as supplemental therapies accessed through community resources (i.e. therapeutic horseback riding, art therapy, music therapy).
