Root Center Developing New Adolescent Services
April 10, 2018
The Root Center is working to develop a new Adolescent Intensive Outpatient program that will start this Fall and be offered five days a week from the hours of 1:30pm-4:30pm for ages 13-17. The program will focus on substance use disorders and will include a three-hour group format including a variety of related topics. Each patient will complete an assessment prior to admission to determine appropriateness for the level of care. The length of time in the program will be individualized.
