Who We Serve
Ideal Fit
Youth and teens who have previously attempted lower levels of care and need structured, longer-term residential treatment that includes a full school day and coordinated family therapy find success in our program.
We specialize in treating disorders of developmental trauma and attachment - including Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD).
Other common diagnoses include trauma, attachment-related challenges and disorders, mood and anxiety disorders, behavioral dysregulation, and co-occurring concerns appropriate for residential care.
What We’re Not
Youth Home is not an acute-care hospital or a short-stay crisis unit.
Youth Home does not process admissions on a drop-in basis.
Residential Treatment
We offer residential-based, therapeutic care that includes education, life-skills development, and family work—focused on stabilization and lasting progress.
Length of Stay
Length of stay varies by child according to individual clinical need and insurance decisions. Coverage also differs by payer.
Our billing and admissions teams carefully review each application and referral and answer any questions parents or caregivers have about what to expect.
We address any concerns before admission, and your case manager keeps you informed about approvals and timelines throughout care.
Our Clinical Expertise
Care is delivered by licensed, credentialed clinicians with formal training in evidence-based, trauma-focused therapies. Our clinical team is nationally recognized for our expertise in treating disorders of trauma and attachment, including RAD. Youth Home is implementing a clinician training program to share best practices and strengthen national capacity.
Our Model
- Our treatment is trauma-informed, whole-person care
- We place an emphasis on therapeutic recreation and play
- Chef-prepared nutrition and culinary program offers choice for every meal
- Quality education and academic supports allow academic progress along your mental health journey
- Low patient-to-staff ratios enforce safety and connection
- We offer weekly individual, group and family therapies and on-site psychiatry and medication support
- And a robust weekly therapy and recreation schedule that goes beyond standard of care expectations
