Treatment Programs & Levels of Care

Resource Treatment Center is a residential treatment center that is designed to provide a full continuum of care to adolescent males and females between the ages of 11 and 20. By offering two distinct components to our residential program, we are able to tailor the care of our patients based on their individual needs.

Our psychiatric residential treatment program (PRTF) provides treatment for male and female adolescents between the ages of 11 and 2.

Our general residential program (RTC) provides treatment for male and female adolescents between the ages of 11 and 20.

Resource has a female unit for adolescent who have a primary mental health diagnosis. Resource also offers two units for males who have demonstrated sexually harmful behaviors. Youth in this program work with master’s level therapists who are credentialed sexually abusive youth clinicians (CSAYC)
