LUV is an outpatient treatment program that provides group counseling, group education, and individual counseling. Groups are Monday and Wednesday nights from 4:00 to 6:00 PM. Individual sessions occur on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. LUV is designed to be between 2-6 months depending on the individual’s goals, needs, and engagement in treatment. Adolescent girls (ages 13-18) who have a history of
substance abuse or are at risk for engaging in substance abuse. Why should I choose the LUV Program? We are a free service with the ability to be flexible to meet individual treatment needs. We maintain small group sizes (a maximum of 12 girls per group) and use evidence-based interventions and curriculum. In addition to substance abuse issues, we focus on a variety of topics such as self-esteem, body image, healthy relationships, conduct issues, anger management, and coping skills. LUV also has the capability to assist with life-skills needs and community support with our Advocate Staff. Advocates can assist with employment, education, and identifying community resources.
