Therapeutic Group Homes

There are three group homes: Main Street House (MSH), High Street House (HSH) and Gray Farm House (GFH). Each has intensive staff levels and services provided within a 24/7 home-like milieu. The CT Department of Children and Families’ Behavioral Health Services Division refers youth from higher levels of care settings to Main Street House and Gray Farm House to receive specialized clinical services and support.  The Department of Children and Families’ Juvenile Services Division refers teenage girls from higher levels of care facilities to High Street House to learn new skills and receive individualized services that help each girl transition back to their families and communities.  Our therapeutic group homes provides trauma-informed services.

Each of the three therapeutic group homes provides treatment services by a professional staff consisting of: full-time Program Director, a full-time master’s level clinician, part-time clinical consultant, half-time registered nurse, part-time psychiatrist, two full-time residential supervisors, youth coaches, and residential assistants.  Education is a major emphasis of all our programs
