Provides educational and clinical services to students in a 6:1:1 classroom setting at a standalone facility. Students receive educational services along with individual therapy, group therapy, family therapy, and medication management when necessary. Students can also access crisis support services when therapeutically necessary. Integrated mental health services are provided within a strength-based recovery model. Partners with Erie 1 BOCES component school districts, Buffalo Public Schools, and families in the referral process, and collaborates with both families and school districts to reintegrate youth into a less restrictive academic setting. Also assists with linkages to community support services to support recovery. Average length of outpatient treatment is 3-6 months or as soon as the student meets their established treatment goals to be discharged to a less restrictive setting.
