Admissions Criteria

We operate year-round and offering rolling admissions to serve boys:

  • Who have shown significant difficulty functioning in social, family and/or school environments, and
  • Whose emotional and behavior problems have been unresponsive to treatment involving a less intensive level of care.

Admissions are evaluated according to these guidelines, but also on a case-by-case basis:

  • Boys 10 to 17 years of age
  • Evidence of ability to benefit from peer and/or adult relationships
  • Capacity to relate to the concept of “cause and effect”
  • Demonstrated behavioral problems of such magnitude that continuation in the home environment is no longer a feasible or practical option unless significant intervention takes place
