Comprehensive extended residential behavioral healthcare for boys 15 to 17, applying innovative clinical, experiential, educational, and recreational programming to make lasting change.
The Turnbridge Boy’s Adolescent Extended Care Program uses the phased care model innovated by Turnbridge more than 20 years ago to deliver the quality, intensity, and individualized array of treatment, wellness, academic, and recreational services needed to effect measurable and lasting changes that lead to improved long-term treatment outcomes.
Boy’s Adolescent Extended Care Program clients learn to manage the symptoms of mental and behavioral health conditions from compassionate specialists and experts while building the skills to engage fully in their lives and pursue their goals.
Boys 15 and 17 years of age receive a full complement of coordinated, age-, and gender-appropriate treatment and supportive services. 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 the Adolescent Extended Care Program or who turn 18 while in treatment transition to the Turnbridge Young Men’s Program, continue treatment at another provider, or return to their home environment.
The Adolescent Extended Care program provides clients with the clinical, life skills, academic, vocational, and experiential support needed to restore overall mental and physical well-being and develop healthy relationships, and then supports their active daily practice of leading a healthy, goal-oriented lifestyle.
All Turnbridge care team members and staff are exceptionally skilled, well-trained, and recruited for their abilities to form productive and positive therapeutic relationships with Turngridge clients. Turnbridge maintains a high staff-to-client ratio to provide clients and family members with easy access to team members, excellent communication, and comprehensive support across treatment disciplines.

The Boy’s Adolescent Extended Care Program environment is a safe, supervised, and comfortable setting in which teens build supportive friendships and practice life and coping skills. Beautifully appointed living quarters, a chef’s kitchen, recreation areas, and study and learning spaces provide a milieu conducive to healing, growth, and connection with peers and caregivers.
The Turnbridge Boy’s Adolescent Extended Care Program accepts insurance for a portion of the cost. We are in-network with Anthem Blue Cross, United Healthcare, and Optum plans, and can work with most other major insurance companies on an out-of-network basis. Please call at any time to speak with an admissions specialist who can help to verify your insurance information.
