Short Term Chemical Dependency Program

The Short-Term Chemical Dependency Program is specifically tailored for children and adolescents ages 11-17, who have a primary substance abuse diagnosis who meet criteria for admission to our general population program; however demonstrate significant behavioral and emotional control to allow for intensive focus on chemical dependency needs.  This tract has a strong family component, which makes weekly, on-site, family participation in individual and group therapy one of the essential admission criteria for placement in this tract.  Clients in this tract receive clinician-led therapeutic services which include individual, family, group process, with multiple CD specific groups.  This is an intensive short term program offered to children and adolescents who have not been successful in IOP (Out Patient) programs and need a structured locked secured environment to ensure their safety, abstinence and completion of their substance abuse program.
