They help girls ages 10-18 and boys from 12-18. If your income isn’t that high, they do accept Indiana Medicaid.
When your kids are admitted, they’ll get a range of therapy options to help tackle any behavioral issues. There’s the traditional therapy done in groups and with individuals, and there’s also learning through art, music, taking care of horses, and even a ropes course. Family meetings are held on weekends, and they’ll have parenting classes and assistance for you and other adult caregivers. That way, you’ll have better communication with your kids. And in case you’re wondering, they don’t restrain their clients, even if they get rowdy.
