Finding the right help for a teen with behavioral issues can overwhelm parents. But for families in Meridian, there’s hope for you. Avery’s House, our residential treatment center in Boise, provides more support than a conventional group home. Families from Meridian and nearby can trust us to nurture their children’s journey to recovery.

What is a group home for teens?

A group home is a supervised living environment for teenagers requiring intensive mental health support.

While youth group homes provide care for teens, they may not completely address serious mental health and behavioral issues.

  • 🏠 Generalized care: Might not meet specific mental health needs due to a one-size-fits-all approach.
  • 🗣️ Limited individual attention: With many teens to care for, personalized therapy sessions are less frequent.
  • 💡 Basic behavioral support: Focuses more on managing behaviors than underlying causes.
  • 📚 Educational gaps: While some support is provided, it may not fully cater to each teen’s academic needs.
  • 🛤️ Transition challenges: Preparing teens for life after the group home can be overlooked.

Teen Residential Treatment offers specialized support to help your child recover.
