Gateway Rehabilitation
Center's YES Program is an intensive, moderate term residential treatment
program for youth with drug and alcohol issues who have been court ordered
through area counties.
The goal of YES is to provide a shorter-term intensive program with active
family programming so that youth can avoid longer-term residential
placement. The average length of stay is 90 - 120 days. The YES program
focuses on understanding addiction, improving family communication,
relapse prevention, and developing problem-solving skills.
