About YSS Ember Recovery Campus
Campus for Healing and Growth
YSS provides a wide range of services aimed at supporting youth and families in Iowa, with tailored services at each of their campuses. Their 70-bed Ember Recovery Campus cares for youth 12 to 18 and young adults ages 18-24 with substance use disorders, led by a founder in long-term recovery. The peaceful, 50-acre campus provides a calm space for reflection, recovery, and personal growth.
Therapy Meeting Clients Where They Are
The campus offers individualized, gender-specific care in a peaceful, remote location. Therapists determine which evidence-based therapies to use with each client to build trust, develop healthy coping skills, and address the root causes of addiction. They tend to use cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), trauma therapy, multidimensional family therapy (MDFT), systems training for emotional predictability and problem solving (STEPPS), and group therapy.
Nature Walks and Room to Breathe
In addition to counseling, the Ember Recovery Campus uses nature for healing. Their campus includes walking trails to immerse in nature, and their indoor spaces include a recreation room and a fitness center.
Planning for Life Beyond Treatment
Ember’s youth can stay on track with education while in treatment. Staff tutor students to stay on track with their schooling, including with their SAT and ACT test prep. They also help teens build support systems for life after treatment, including family involvement and aftercare planning.

CARF Accredited
CARF stands for the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities. It's an independent, non-profit organization that provides accreditation services for a variety of healthcare services. To be accredited means that the program meets their standards for quality, effectiveness, and person-centered care.
Supportive Medication for Recovery
Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) is an evidence-based approach that pairs FDA-approved medications with counseling to treat addiction. The medications are used to reduce cravings, ease withdrawal symptoms, or block the effects of substances. More about MAT
Methadone
Methadone
Dolophine®, Methadose®
Methadone is a full opioid agonist, meaning it activates opioid receptors in the brain to produce effects like pain relief and euphoria. It is longer acting than many other opioids, making it useful in medication-assisted treatment for opioid use disorder.
It reduces withdrawal symptoms and cravings by occupying opioid receptors without causing intense highs. Because it is a full agonist, it must be used carefully to avoid overdose, but it is highly effective when taken as prescribed within a structured program.
Naltrexone
Naltrexone
Vivitrol®, Revia®
Naltrexone is an opioid antagonist, meaning it blocks opioid receptors in the brain and prevents opioids from producing effects like euphoria or sedation. It is used to treat both opioid and alcohol use disorders, but does not cause physical dependence or withdrawal.
It helps reduce cravings and the rewarding effects of opioids or alcohol, supporting long-term recovery. Because it blocks opioid effects, it should only be started after a person has fully detoxed from opioids to avoid triggering withdrawal.
Buprenorphine
Buprenorphine
Suboxone®, Subutex®, Sublocade®, Zubsolv®
Buprenorphine is a partial opioid agonist used to treat opioid use disorder. It activates opioid receptors to reduce cravings and withdrawal but has a ceiling effect, meaning it produces less euphoria and respiratory depression than full opioids.
Buprenorphine binds tightly to opioid receptors, blocking other opioids from attaching and reducing the risk of misuse. It's often combined with naloxone (as in Suboxone®) to discourage injection misuse and is available in daily or monthly forms.
This center accepts patients receiving MAT prescribed elsewhere for opioid use disorder, but does not provide MAT.
Note: Treatment centers offer different forms of MAT—such as oral tablets, dissolvable films, or monthly injections—and their policies can vary based on state regulations, provider preferences, and insurance coverage. Because of these differences, it's best to contact the center directly to learn what options are available and what might be right for your situation.
