ACS currently has ten clinics and five day treatment programs within the three counties. Aspen also contracts with the State of Nevada to provide intensive day services to at-risk youth referred by the Department of Mental Health and the Clark County Probation Department. Full day rehabilitation services are provided at five community centers in partnership with the Boys and Girls Club in the Las Vegas and Reno area. Youth on probation recently released from detention or at-risk for placement. Probation services, which are funded through three contracts and provided at four community resource centers, include substance abuse treatment, job development services and mental health evaluation and treatment.
Youth living in group homes receive counseling and support services where they live.
The primary goal is to increase stability in their placement and decrease the need for psychiatric hospitalization or emergency shelter. In addition to the above programs, Aspen Community Services provides special programs for targeted populations. While the duration of participation in the programs varies, the expected outpatient treatment is always based on individualized treatment plans.
