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.
