About Newport Academy All Genders
Newport Academy’s All-Gender program in Southern California offers highly structured residential care, with personalized treatment plans and identity-affirming care based on the specific issues patients face—whether that’s trauma, gaming or tech addiction, eating disorders, substance use, or other mental health issues. This nurturing experience creates a space for compassion, trust, and camaraderie among residents. Healing extends to families too, with family involvement and weekly family therapy.
Personalized And Family-Wide Recovery

Clients in their all-gender program live in an on-campus home dedicated to their comfort. Their location in Southern California keeps teens close to nature, enhancing their care experience and privacy. Newport Academy values incorporating experiential therapies into their clients' schedules.

Testimonial
I have seen the power of Newport Academy and the amount of difference their program make. I was most impressed by the family program. Families enter broken and emerging better shape and function.
