Programs

Paramount Youth Services provides therapeutic residential services at Park Place House and Lafayette House to male adolescents (ages 12-18) who may be in need of a structured therapeutic environment as they prepare for successful reintegration into the community. Both programs emphasis is placed on the development of age appropriate social and interpersonal skills, personal living skills, and coping/problem-solving skills. Our goal is to enable young men to understand and address the issues they are facing and move forward to become successful and productive members of society. The youths are typically referred to PYS by juvenile domestic relation court service units, department of human services, and other authorized referral sources.

Program Module

Paramount Youth Services operates therapeutic residential group homes that serve as an alternative or transitional placement for youths who need continued structure and therapeutic support outside of a more restrictive setting. Our programs emphasize accountability, life-skillsdevelopment, and coordinated care delivered within supervised group
home settings.

The programs are managed by a multidisciplinary treatment team and guided by individualized treatment plans, ongoing assessment, and collaboration with referral sources.

Key elements of the model include:

  • Structured daily routines and supervision

  • Individualized treatment plans

  • Evidence-based interventions to promote healthy behaviors

  • Coordination with community mental health providers, juvenile court units, referral agencies, and families
