Teens don’t do well in an adult rehab. Adolescence is tough enough without dealing with abuse or addiction, and for teens to have the best chance at getting better, they really need to recover in a facility designed and tailored to the needs of teens.

Teen drug treatment works well. Teens respond better than do adults to therapeutic techniques such as behavioral modification, and for some out of control adolescents, spending a few months in a highly structured facility gives them what they need to move past antisocial behaviors and drug experimentation or abuse.
