Centers for Youth and Families

The Centers in Monticello, Arkansas, provides residential treatment for children and adolescents experiencing mental health or substance use challenges. The program serves youth with emotional, behavioral, or social difficulties, including those in foster care or considered at risk. It offers 24-hour care in a structured setting, combining on-site education, therapy, and medical services in a single, integrated location.
Treatment is grounded in a trauma-informed approach that emphasizes safety, trust, and empowerment. Services include individual, group, and family therapy, along with medication management, recreational activities, and structured daily routines. A multidisciplinary team works closely with each child to promote emotional healing and encourage the development of healthy behaviors.
Support continues beyond the initial treatment through wrap-around services and active family engagement. Wellness initiatives include nutritional support and guidance for reintegration into home or community settings. Aftercare services are designed to maintain progress and foster long-term stability and connection.
