Adolescent Extended Care

Extended care programs for adolescents 15 to 17

Leading Adolescent and Teen Extended Care

Completely immersive programs of clinical, experiential, educational, and recreational programming that address every aspect of life for boys and girls 15 to 17 years of age.

Using the phased-programming extended care model developed by Turnbridge in 2003, gender-separate Turnbridge Adolescent Extended Care Programs help girls and boys 15 to 17 years of age develop clinical practice, life skills, physical and mental wellness, and resilience by gradually increasing independence and exposure to real-world stresses and situations.

Coordinated Care

Addressing Every Aspect of Client Life

Adolescent Extended Care Programs provide comprehensive treatment while helping clients develop self-agency, life skills, community, and independence.

Teens 15 and 17 years of age receive a full complement of coordinated, age-, and gender-appropriate treatment and supportive services in gender-separate programs. Like all Turnbridge extended care programs, clients receive integrated treatment from top professionals, attentive case management, psychoeducation, and skills training, and a broad range of experiential and recreational programming. They are also given the freedom to develop independent living skills and experience the growth and freedoms appropriate to children of this age group while being sufficiently supported and supervised by their care team.

Clients completing Boy’s or Girl’s Adolescent Extended Care Program or who turn 18 while in treatment transition to a Turnbridge Young Adult Extended Care Program, continue treatment at another provider, or return to their home environment.

Living Well

Modelling Holistic Wellness

Gender-specific Adolescent Extended Care Programs provide clients with the clinical, life skills, academic, vocational, and experiential support needed to restore overall mental and physical well-being, develop healthy relationships, and support their active daily practice of leading a healthy, goal-oriented lifestyle.

Our Adolescent Extended Care Programs helps teens who are typically enrolled in high school to continue their academic journey or get the help they need to advance and matriculate. Some Extended Care Program clients take jobs in the local community or determine that they would like to pursue specific vocational paths. Turnbridge also helps clients find and safely establish relationships with local support groups when appropriate and beneficial.
