@article{Leitstein_2021, title={Community-based Residential Treatment}, volume={6}, url={https://socialinnovationsjournal.com/index.php/sij/article/view/732}, abstractNote={<p>Legacy Treatment Services has designed an innovative small community-based out-of-home residential treatment program for youth who are experiencing severe emotional and behavioral struggles as a result of disruptive and traumatic childhood experiences. These experiences exacerbate already co-occurring issues such as psychiatric diagnosis or substance use disorders. The program aims to serve youth who require continued intensive psychiatric care in a highly staffed and supportive residential environment, which incorporates supports for the whole family, before they can transition home or to a less restrictive out-of-home placement. Over 80% of youth are able to successfully return home or to a less restrictive placement.</p>}, journal={Social Innovations Journal}, author={Leitstein, Roy}, year={2021}, month={Apr.} }
