Our Home, Inc.
Psychiatric Residential Treatment Centers Parkston serves both female and male adolescents ages 12-17 that have experienced legal, school or family concerns. The program works with the resident to develop healthier attitudes and coping skills for the behaviors that caused the need(s) for treatment. The Parkston program also works with youth who have experienced chemical use and/or have had their lives impacted by other's chemical use. The Parkston program has a Chemical Dependency counselor on staff that provides several groups including 12-step programming, and education group, and relapse prevention. These groups are designed to help residents strengthen their recovery program, prepare to enter a recovery program or develop better skills for dealing with peer pressure and other cause of use. A multidisciplinary treatment team works with the youth and family to design a treatment plan that addresses each youth's individual needs and objectives. While using an individual approach, Our home, Inc. also emphasizes a modality that includes the utilization of a therapeutic group milieu, in which peers become an important part of each resident's daily program, by developing concepts that include; respect for self and others, development of health relationships, developing and meeting expectations, and responsibility to provide and promote a safe and secure environment. ASAP serves males between the age of 12 and 17 who have demonstrated some type of sexually aggressive or sexually abusive behavior towards others. The length of stay ranges from 12-18 months.

A multidisciplinary treatment team works with each resident every 30 days to identify specific problem areas and develop objectives to assist in progressing through the recovery process. The treatment philosophy includes a strong belief in a group therapy atmosphere and a core milieu of positive peer culture and cognitive behavioral therapy. Concepts of expectations, privileges and responsibilities help to provide safety and security. Specific emphasis is on working on victim empathy, health relationships, relapse prevention, denial, techniques to interrupt inappropriate arousal and taking full responsibilities for their offenses.
