Skwentna, AK. - Adolescents

As a parent or guardian the thought of enrolling your child into a drug treatment facility can be overwhelming and frightening. Unfortunately, just like adults, adolescents become addicted to drugs and alcohol and need professional treatment in order to stop using. Due to their young age it is not an option for them to attend an adult drug rehab. Many specialized and age appropriate drug rehabilitation facilities have been created to focus on adolescents and their distinct requirements pertaining to substance abuse recovery. Substance abuse professionals who are experienced in youth counseling and therapy are able to work with your loved one and guide them through their recovery process.
