About this facility
The center supports youth ages 6-21 in Northeast Florida who face mental, emotional, and behavioral challenges, often due to trauma or abuse. They offer family-style residential group homes for boys, outpatient programs, and four community-based services. Programs help youth heal, build independence, and stay connected to their community.
The facility uses trauma-informed care based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and a team-based support approach that involves the youth, family, and community. Youth receive individual, group, and family therapy, psychiatric support, and skills training. Programs also include case management, coaching, and crisis support to strengthen emotional well-being, teach healthy behaviors, and improve family relationships.
Youth in residential care live in shared homes with on-site meals, private bathrooms, and consistent routines. The campus features activity spaces that encourage play, growth, and social connection. Whether in residential or community programs, they provide a safe, structured environment that promotes healing and prepares youth for a healthy, independent future.
