This program offers assessment and short-term emergency care in a caring and nurturing environment for girls and boys who are typically ages 10 to 18. Many youth who are served through this program are abused, neglected, runaway youth, or have been in trouble due to criminal or delinquent activities (adjudicated). Referrals come from a variety of sources, including state agencies, juvenile courts, and private sources. This program provides mediation and counseling to strengthen families and emphasizes family reunification, if it is in the best interest of the youth. During their stay, youth participate in individual treatment planning to help them deal with their problems. Facilities where the program is offered may be described as staff-secure detention centers, emergency shelters, or short-term residential centers.
