Residential Treatment
Libby’s Place offers long term residential treatment for female adolescents who are experiencing complex and longstanding difficulties.
The programming at Libby’s Place offers a high degree of structure for its six residents, girls ages 12 to 18, with an emphasis on relationship-based support. This approach, following the developmental research of young girls and adolescents, uses the program for working on, responding to, and building relationships.
Libby’s Place is licensed by the Ministry under the Child, Youth and Family Services Act.
If you are a youth, up to 18 years of age, or their parent or guardian, you can submit a referral for yourself or on behalf of someone else for intensive services (day treatment, live-in treatment or intensive in home treatment) to Help Ahead.
