Transitioning to Adulthood

- Services for girls 18+

Evangel House™ can help older teens.  Services for this age group are similar to that of services to its younger teen residents; providing therapy by licensed professionals, medication management services, and holistic treatment planning while emphasizing a lifestyle based on Christian values.  However, this program integrates career coaching, independent living skills, and supervised college & career training.   

The structure of the Evangel House™ Transition Study Center provides graduates of other emotional growth schools and programs the unique opportunity to attend college, vocational training, or job training in a therapeutic environment.  It also provides those with no prior residential placement the opportunity to prepare for adulthood through a two phase structure.

- Phase I

Phase One is a 5-7 month individualized course.  Phase One residents participate in academic completion of high school or GED, equestrian activities, ranch chores, weekly individual and group therapy, a Christian life skills curriculum, and local church involvement.  There is a high level of family involvement as well, and family therapy sessions are a regular part of the program.

- Phase II

Phase Two is a 5-7 month individualized course designed to coach residents in the application of their acquired skills in their daily lives. These residents attend classes at the local university, community college, or vocational college.  This phase fosters a healthy independence, while holding high standards of accountability and support.

The application process, fee structure, and financing options are the same for this age group.

We have openings, available immediately.
