Avalon is a short stay residential therapeutic program and non-public school for youth ages 12 to 18 with a dual diagnosis of serious emotional disturbance and developmental disability. The youth are referred to Avalon because their behavior cannot be managed by their caretaker.
The program provides a safe, stable, and highly structured environment by combining intensive staffing, mental health interventions and behavior modification. Individual, group and family therapy is a part of everyday life. The goal of the program is to maximize a resident’s level of functioning to enable them to engage in a pattern of everyday living similar to that of non-disabled peers.
With a multidisciplinary team comprised of highly experienced staff, the rates of success of Avalon are high. After a one year to 18-month stay, 100% of youth had decreased symptoms after completing the program. More than 57% of students achieved their Individual Education Plan goals.
