Our ideal client is an adolescent (ages 12-18) struggling with substance use disorder. Our residential treatment program is voluntary, which means they come to YSS because they want to make a change. Our program is most often the next step after traditional outpatient therapy has not been sufficient. We help youth who know they need to make a change and they want support and guidance on their journey. Our counselors are highly trained to help build coping skills, educate on substance abuse, and motivate youth to be successful in their journey toward sobriety. Each individual client’s progress is reviewed by the treatment team during a weekly supervision. Their goal is to leave our program sober and prepared to process stress, anger, and challenges in a healthy, productive manner. Our gender-specific treatment helps youth develop coping skills, healthy relationship-building skills, and relapse prevention strategies. Family is integrated into treatment through visits, family therapy, virtual parent information sessions, and our unique Strengthening Families Weekend. We continue to support youth after they graduate from our program and return to their communities.
