This center treats substance use disorders and mental health conditions. You'll receive individualized care catered to your unique situation and diagnosis, learn practical skills for recovery, and make new connections in a restorative environment.

They help children and teens ages 12 to 18 who are dealing with behavioral and mental health challenges. Treatment includes both short term stabilization and longer residential care. The Provo Campus offers separate programs for middle school boys and high school boys and girls. Students also attend accredited school year round with support from full medical and psychiatric teams. Their “Acuity Based Care” model looks at each student’s strengths and challenges to adjust treatment intensity over time. Therapy includes one on one sessions, group work, family therapy, skill focused groups, recreation, medication management, and evidence based substance use support. This approach helps teens build emotional tools, social skills, and healthy habits. Students live in shared rooms separated by age and gender. They attend school on site, eat in a cafeteria, and spend free time in gyms, a pool, athletic fields, playgrounds, and ropes courses. There are also off site outings and structured routines that support learning, growth, and healing throughout the day.
