The Devereux Children's Program is located on 465 serene acres at the Victoria campus. The children's program provides specialized 24 hour treatment for boys and girls ages 6 to 12 with the goal of returning the children to their home or a less restrictive treatment setting. The program treats emotionally and cognitively affected children with moderate to severe diagnoses. The strong therapeutic behavior management program fosters an atmosphere of structure, support and consistency designed to promote internalization of improved behavior. The education program is designed to maximize the learning potential of all clients through positive social, emotional and educational development.
All residential units are secured.
The programs are designed for males and females ages 13-22 years old. Program assignments are made based on age, I.Q. and behavior. The programs accept emotional, cognitive, behavioral and developmental disorders and use a strong therapeutic behavior management program. Low functioning clients are evaluated on an individual basis. Devereux offers specialized programming for adolescents and young adults that are both difficult to treat and hard to place.
