Parsonage Place I is designed to work with females ages

SERVICES
Our program is designed to provide three distinct components:

Our program is designed to provide clear boundaries

and groups. Our youth are provided with therapeutic
services that consist of individual, family, and group
therapy along with behavior modification and social
skills training. We provide our youth with residential
care in a safe, comfortable, and stimulating home environment
staffed with counselors to provide tool for positive
growth and development. The educational support component
assists youth in achieving their individual educational
goals. Youth Empowerment Services works with the whole
individual and provides a milieu intended to promote
growth and development in all areas of the residents'
lives. Our "Treatment Team" consists of a
Program Director, Program Manager, Therapist, and residential
