What we do best is get kids sober and help keep them out of trouble. We are an intensive outpatient program (IOP), geared towards aiding adolescents between the ages of 13 and 19 and their families through the recovery process. We strive to assist our adolescent clientele in developing an understanding and desire for a healthier lifestyle - free from chemicals and self-destructive behaviors.

    Education plays an important role in the program for both the teen and his or her family members. Through workshops and interactive discussions, we explore the dynamics of families struggling with substance abuse issues and help them to develop and utilize coping skills. We also educate families about relapse prevention, anger management, and self-esteem. On site, youth Alcoholics Anonymous and Families Anonymous meetings provide support for both the adolescent and the family in recovery. Random urine drug screens are also given to aid and monitor the adolescent's progress while in treatment.

    The F.A.I.R. program utilizes a multi-disciplinary approach to treatment in order to best serve our clients in their individual and family recovery. Each client works closely with a treatment team made up of certified alcohol and drug abuse counselors, therapists, psychologists, psychiatrists, and peer counselors. We welcome opportunities to work with therapists, legal officers, and schools within the community in order to better serve the holistic needs of your client. Our services also include on-site individual and family treatment provided by an affiliated group of psychiatrists, psychologists, and social workers as needed.

    Many of our clients experience problems with mood disorders, ADHD, generalized anxiety disorder or bipolar disorder. We are able to treat these and other concurrent psychological disorders which may inhibit the recovery process. Our approach has shown to be very successful in working with these dual diagnosed clients with added challenges.
