With over 20 years of experience working with children and families struggling with a RAD diagnosis, Youth Home, has developed and implemented a specific program to help your family.
Many treatment centers list Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) among the diagnoses that they treat, however, their approach to working with these families is no different from how they treat other patients.
We offer a continuum of care to address the specific needs of a child with RAD and their family involving support, training, and individualized therapy.

Trauma Informed Care. We are expected to act on that knowledge in every interaction with our residents and with each other.
