Certifications: QRTP (Qualified Residential Treatment Program)
The Itaskin Treatment Center seeks to provide trauma-informed care in a safe, therapeutic living environment for children diagnosed with a Serious Emotional Disability. The program is adaptive to meet the individual needs of each youth, based on their trauma and mental health screens at admission.
Program components include but are not limited to: family integration and support, daily therapeutic groups, cultural education and activities, on-site education, and health screenings and interventions.
Program staff work with youth and families to develop support systems, build skills, and prepare for a successful transition back to the community/home setting. The program also provides after care support upon discharge.
The residential mental health treatment programs are rooted in trauma-informed practices, acknowledging families and youth are doing the best they can with their current skill sets. Appreciating and acknowledging how traumatic stress and experiences have shaped the lives of youth and families enables the programs to provide a person-centered, strength-based, and trauma-informed approach.
