Located in Morrison, 35 miles southwest of Denver in the mountain foothills, our ADAD certified TRCCF provides services for adolescent males (ages 12-18). Treatment is available for chemical dependency, and other mental, emotional and behavioral addictions. The average stay is six months in the therapeutic community setting, although a 45 to 90 day “fast-track” program is also available to those who qualify. The residential setting offers an intensive therapeutic track system encompassing two specific categories:

Track 1 - Addictions/General Mental Health

Addictions/General Mental Health treatment addresses the mental, emotional and behavioral components of various disorders. This track helps youth identify and develop skills to deal with issues such as depression, truancy, uncontrolled outbursts, compulsivity, oppositional defiance and others.

Substance Abuse/Addictions clients learn the stages of the addictive process through the “Head High System” developed by Dr. Harl Hargett. This process helps youth understand the effects of drugs on the mental, emotional and spiritual being. Youth will understand the impact to self and family. Clients in this track are challenged with rebuilding their lives and relationships while in therapy.

Track 2 - Sex Offense/Specific Therapy

Sex Offense-Specific Therapy treatment addresses both victim and perpetrator, the onset of sexual acting out and defining criminal behavior. Both clients and their families will be introduced to the cycles of this disorder and how to develop skills to abolish negative behaviors. Participation in STEP (Specific Treatment and Education Program) for parents or guardians will educate them of their child's problems and what they can do to encourage skills learned through the family integration period. These skills are crucial and necessary in keeping the youth and family members safe.
