SERVING BOYS AGES 13 TO 17 – IQ OF 80 AND ABOVE

We understand it can be difficult to determine that a specialized residential treatment program is right for your son. That is why we offer a focused, initial assessment to identify your family concerns while providing treatment services to your son in a therapeutic, home-like setting. During the assessment process, we identify your son’s behavioral and emotional needs and provide professional recommendations for reducing or eliminating the sexual behavior problems that have become barriers to healthy relationships and strong living standards.
