Our Programs
All programs at East Mountain Youth Lodge provide 24-hour intensive residential services, plus afford access to the full array of a youth behavioral health continuum on campus, including a special education school program and an Adolescent and Teen Inpatient Unit if needed for acute crisis stabilization. EMYL provides individual, group and family therapy, psychiatric, and nursing services as well as education, recreation and adventure-based treatment, all aimed at building our resident’s strengths and coping mechanisms and preparing them to be successful in less restrictive settings.
We offer a comprehensive family treatment component, addiction treatment, and volunteer experiences available to our young people as well. On the grounds, residents have the use of a full indoor gym, an outdoor in-ground pool, a softball field, tennis, basketball and volleyball courts, a game room, chapel, art room, hiking trails and a low ropes adventure treatment site. Specialized programs such as equine therapy further encourage teens to get in touch with their feelings and emotions, so they can better understand themselves and begin to heal.
