Specialized Services – FACT

Some young people are navigating two serious challenges at once – mental illness / severe emotional disorders and underlying developmental disabilities such as autism or intellectual disabilities. Our FACT program was built for them. Through our day treatment and group home settings, we offer therapy, psycho-educational groups, and real human connection, because every young person deserves support that truly fits who they are.

Day Treatment

For boys and girls ages 8 to 18 living in the Jacksonville area – whether at home, in foster care, or in a group home – our day treatment program offers a steady, supportive place to learn how to manage difficult emotions and behaviors. With an on-site school providing age-appropriate curricula, the goal is always the same: to help each young person feel ready and confident enough to return to a public school setting.

Group Homes

Our two Level III mental health group homes serve boys and girls ages 8 to 18 who need more than outpatient support, but don’t require inpatient psychiatric care. In a structured, nurturing environment with round-the-clock care and intensive therapy, young people build the skills to live more independently. Most stays last 6 to 9 months, ending with a thoughtful, gradual transition back to their home community – with local support already in place so they don’t face it alone.

Outpatient Therapy

Our licensed clinical mental health counselor – also a certified trauma professional – provides individual therapy to children and adults ages 8 and up who carry Medicaid insurance. We offer a space where clients are met with compassion and supported in making choices that move their lives forward.
