- Court Diversion Services provide a variety of interventions for juveniles, detained by law enforcement, including diversion from the Circuit Court for first-time offenders and probation services for youth involved with the Circuit Court. The focus is placed on first time offenders as studies have concluded that recidivism rates are reduced with this type of intervention.
- The Group Home provides court-ordered and private placement for youth 10-18 in need of a structured therapeutic environment in Jackson. During placement each resident goes through program phases that include orientation, identification, application and transition. This program generally takes on average seven to eight months. During that period, individual, group and family counseling are provided on a weekly basis.
- RED TOP MEADOWS
- a 14-bed residential treatment and therapeutic wilderness program
- Placement of a child at Red Top Meadows Residential Treatment Program is a logical step when the child is not able to function in their home and school environments. It can be a helpful transition between old negative cycles of behavior and developing healthier more productive ways of dealing with life’s difficulties.
- Therapeutic Wilderness trips have been a part of the Red Top program since 1982. The combination of the wilderness environment, adventure activities, and the sense of community formed by living closely in the mountains provides endless opportunities for learning and personal growth.
