Youth Home

Youth Home, Inc., established in 1966, is a nonprofit psychiatric treatment center located in Little Rock, Arkansas. The organization is dedicated to equipping and empowering youth, adults, and families to become healthier, contributing members of the community by providing compassionate emotional and behavioral health care.

Specialized Youth Programs

Youth Home offers a continuum of care that includes a Qualified Residential Treatment Program (QRTP) for youth in the custody of the Division of Child and Family Services (DCFS) and an Intensive Residential Treatment (IRT) Program. These programs serve adolescents aged 12 to 17 who are dealing with severe mental health challenges such as reactive attachment disorder (RAD), anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, ADHD/ADD, and OCD. The treatment approach incorporates an award-winning Recreational Therapy Program and an on-site educational program approved by the Arkansas Department of Education. Teens benefit from a 4 to 1 client to caregiver ratio, ensuring that they can receive individualized support.

Strengthen Your Support Network

In addition to residential services, Youth Home operates an outpatient clinic called Behavioral Health Services of Arkansas, which serves families, parents, couples, and individuals of all ages. This clinic offers a school-based therapy program to assist children whose behavioral, emotional, and social problems are affecting their academic performance. Additionally, Youth Home is accredited by The Joint Commission.
