Overview

Services provided: QRTP

We mostly serve boys 15+ who are APPLA, are expected to age out of the system, and usually go into collaborative care. Most have no family involvement and little foster/adoption options due to their age. Although we are a QRTP, we are less restrictive, less structured, and more family-like than the typical QRTP. The boys here lead more “normal” lives with more freedoms than the typical residential setting. Many of our admissions are step-down cases who have successfully completed a program at a more secure facility. We also tend to get cases of kids that are being bullied in an environment that is too tough for them. We do accept SMY step-downs and have a CSACY therapist to work with them.
