Day Treatment

Day Treatment Program

Day Treatment services are provided to children/adolescent’s whose behaviors are severe enough that it is making it difficult for them to function in a typical academic setting in their community school. The service is provided in a separate classroom or building, and is structured to improve the individuals behavioral and coping skills so that they can return to their community school.

Primary populations served are children and/or adolescents, age 6 through 18, with a mental health diagnosis and who meet the criteria for admittance.

      • The referred child must have an Axis I or II MH/SA diagnosis that is not
         solely a developmental disability,

      • Less restrictive MH/SA rehabilitative services in the educational setting
        have been considered or previously attempted but were found not
        effective or ineffective,

      • The child exhibits behavior resulting in significant school disruption or
         significant social withdrawal, and

      • The child is experiencing mental health and/or substance abuse  
        symptoms/behaviors that severely impair functional ability in an
        educational setting which may include vocational setting.

This service is designed to serve children who, as a result of their mental health and/or substance abuse treatment needs, are unable to benefit from participation in academic or vocational services at a developmentally appropriate level in a traditional school or work setting.

Eligibility for the Day treatment program:

      • Individuals who are a part of Cabarrus Co. and Yadkin Co. School district.
      • All referrals must go through your school.  (CC Griffin or Yadkin Success
