Community-based Treatment and Education for Challenged Youth
Hilltops Residential Youth Services (RYS) is a safe, nurturing, residential program providing comprehensive guidance and treatment for youth and their families.
Located on a 7-acre campus, this unique program is designed to promote behavioral and academic improvement through therapeutic, social, educational and recreational programming.
Who we serve
- Young people ages 12-18
- Youth who have demonstrated significant mental health needs and cannot be maintained in a less-restrictive setting
- Those in need of services regarding physical, emotional, and/or sexual abuse, neglect, or chemical dependency
As a 40-bed facility, with separate residences for boys and girls, RYS serves young people who have encountered difficulty at home, school, and in the community.
Our caring staff is ready to help you!
