Who We Treat
We help youth who challenge traditional mental and behavioral health solutions.
Finding help for youth with specific challenges can be difficult. Youth Villages’ residential treatment centers for boys and girls ages 6 to 17 provide treatment in the context of a variety of specialized conditions and behaviors.
- Extreme aggressive or defiant behaviors
- Problem sexual behaviors
- Emotional disturbance and co-occurring medical conditions
- Suicidal and self-harming behaviors
- Chronic runaway behaviors with high risk of harm to self or others
- Psychotic symptoms and behaviors
- Youth with intellectual disability (IQ of 50 or above)
- DSM-V diagnosable mental disorder
How We Treat
We believe residential treatment should be short term.
At Youth Villages, our guiding vision is a commitment to stepping youth down to the least restrictive treatment option possible—preferably back to a family or other home-like setting.
That means our residential treatment includes preparations for continuing therapy outside of a residential context, and when possible, preparing for family reunification.
Why We’re Different
We have more than 30 years of experience doing what works.
Founded in 1986, Youth Villages has gained a national reputation for the tracking and measurement of outcomes – the foundation of effective treatment models.
We know what works, and our residential programs are some of the most successful in the country.
