 GROUP HOME SERVICES AND NON-PUBLIC SCHOOL: The Group Home Services program is Remi Vista’s most intensive milieu treatment program. Remi Vista operates an RCL level 12 group home program specifically designed to address the treatment needs of juvenile sex offenders.
ORGANIZATION: The group home program consists of four homes located in the Redding, California area. Each home can house up to six male residents, ages 12 to 17, who have been identified as needing a highly structured milieu in order to facilitate their integration of sexuality into a healthy personality. In addition to this, professionals from the Mental Health Division are assigned to address the identified treatment needs of the group home residents. All group home participants must qualify to receive specialty mental health services.
PHILOSOPHY: Remi Vista understands the tragic, but often necessary, nature of placement into a group home. Our philosophy is that if a child’s removal from home and community becomes necessary, it is incumbent upon us to provide an intensive program that facilitates rapid growth and transition back into healthy community functioning. Currently, the average length of stay at a Remi Vista group home is eighteen months. A successful course of treatment can range, however, from one to two years.
