Adolescent Programs

The Crossroads Center Adolescent Outpatient Program is designed to provide treatment to youth and their families. The program may utilize a community-based approach which provides treatment in school or at the agency. Parental and family involvement is encouraged. The goal of this program is to decrease the active incidence of substance abuse while strengthening the family members' functional and self-sufficient behavior.
