Adolescents in crisis need a safe, secure, caring environment where their condition can be stabilized and they can be protected from harming themselves.

At the same time, we are equipped to protect and care for adolescents with a serious mental health crisis. Medical care is provided by the LVHN Children’s Hospital staff. Our program treats patients from age 12 to 18, utilizing an interdisciplinary treatment team, including a school teacher – all highly skilled and dedicated to the special needs of teens.
