Adolescents
face many unique problems. Our program allows the adolescent to work through
many emotional conflicts within the safe boundaries of our facility. Adolescents
move through levels and are assisted in developing living skills, interpersonal
skills and relapse prevention skills. In addition to the regular program,
adolescents attend special workshops designed to meet their needs and attend
on-site tutorial services to help them reach their educational goals. The
setting at The Family is designed for our Adolescent Program by allowing
room for exploration, meditation, and activities geared toward the high
energy level of this particular population.
