Childrens Home – Chenango Forks

As part of Hillside’s services network, the Children’s Home supported children and their families with different mental health programs. This included substance abuse. They were also known as Stillwater and were located in Chenango Forks, New York. The center closed in 2022.

When they were open, they offered multiple services including residential treatment and onsite 24/7 care for kids. This environment was best for children who had emotional and behavioral problems as it offered a more controlled atmosphere.

One unique feature was its focus on family engagement. They were aware of the fact that family involvement frequently resulted in better outcomes. As a result, they provided family therapy sessions and encouraged the families to engage in meaningful ways with their treatment. Their comprehensive model of care went beyond the hospital walls to help prepare families for when a child returned home, so they could continue thriving.

They were known for being a restful place for healing and growth, particularly for young people with serious emotional or behavioral challenges. Stillwater was also accessible because of the range of insurance providers that they supported.

Even though the center is closed, Hillside has other facilities nearby that can help families and kids. These can include Children’s Home programs in other sites. Check ’em out and make sure they’re a good fit for your needs.
