About Youth Care

Youth Care is a beautiful campus-style rehabilitation center for adolescents and children in Utah. Youth Care has residential treatment programs, accredited academic programs, and day treatment programs. Youth Care treats young girls and boys who are suffering from anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, bipolar disorder, behavioral health disorders, oppositional defiant disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), suicidal ideations and self harm, and co-occurring addictions. Youth Care uses behavior modification techniques, family treatment, recreational therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). Most programs are gender-specific and age-specific. Youth Care is an active participant in The Jason Foundation, which is committed to developing nationwide awareness and preventing youth suicide. Youth Care is accredited by the Joint Commission and accepts most major insurances.
Youth Care is a beautiful rehabilitation center that is laid out similarly to a college campus. All accommodations are gender and age-specific and shared. On the campus is an indoor and outdoor basketball court, yoga lessons, a community garden, fire pit, and a fitness center. Clients are monitored during all activities and have the opportunity to go on adventurous outings.

Evidence-Based Context: According to SAMHSA's National Survey on Drug Use and Health (2023), approximately 48.7 million Americans aged 12 or older had a substance use disorder in the past year. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) emphasizes that treatment programs combining behavioral therapy with medication-assisted approaches show the highest rates of sustained recovery. Facilities like Youth Care provide structured pathways to evidence-based care. Sources: SAMHSA NSDUH 2023, NIDA Principles of Drug Addiction Treatment (4th Ed.)

What to Expect at Youth Care

A clinical team evaluates your history, needs, and goals to create a personalized plan.

2. Active Treatment

Evidence-based therapies including 1-on-1 Counseling and Family Therapy, typically 30 days.

3. Progress & Recovery

Regular progress reviews, skill-building sessions, and adjustment of your treatment plan.

4. Aftercare Planning

Understanding Your Treatment Options

Choosing the right treatment facility is one of the most important decisions in the recovery journey. Research published by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) shows that treatment duration, therapeutic approach, and aftercare planning are the three strongest predictors of long-term sobriety.

Youth Care offers 2 distinct levels of care, allowing patients to step through treatment intensities as they progress. This continuum-of-care model — moving from higher to lower intensity — is recommended by SAMHSA as the gold standard for addiction treatment.

The facility utilizes 9 evidence-based therapeutic modalities. According to NIDA research, combination therapy approaches that integrate behavioral interventions (such as 1-on-1 Counseling and Family Therapy) with holistic support show significantly improved outcomes compared to single-modality programs.

Under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act, most commercial insurance plans are required to cover substance abuse treatment. Youth Care works with 24 insurance providers. Call (833) 567-5838 to verify your specific coverage and learn about out-of-pocket costs before admission.
