Individual/Family Counseling
Many of the adolescents that come to this program have multiple problems. Additional screening is done to assess such problems as substance abuse and victimization. The structured group format cannot always fully address such issues. Providing individual/family counseling expands our ability to provide more in-depth interventions to those in need. Appropriate referrals for substance abuse counseling and other needed services are provided.

Adolescents are referred through the courts will are provided progress reports and completion letters as needed.
