The Avalon program provides a safe, stable, and highly structured environment by combining intensive staffing, a milieu culture, mental health interventions and behavior modification. Youth are assessed at in-take and receive on-going evaluation. Individual, group, family, and milieu therapy is a part of everyday life. Youth also receive case management, medication support and monitoring, expressive arts, special education, crisis intervention, behavior management and skill-building. 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 like that of non-disabled peers. We strive to increase a resident's abilities to live in a less restrictive environment with less intensive staffing, less formal structure, and more relaxed programming.
