Trauma-Informed and Routine-Oriented Care

The 60-day residential program provides a structured yet supportive environment tailored to youth with moderate to high treatment needs. Clients participate in individual, group, and family therapy alongside recreation, wellness education, and life skills development. Staff emphasize emotional safety and resilience-building through a trauma-informed approach that meets teens where they are.

Dual Diagnosis Support and MAT Integration

While detox services are not offered, the program supports teens who are prescribed buprenorphine or naltrexone elsewhere as part of their recovery. Staff are trained to address co-occurring mental health disorders, including trauma-related challenges and behavioral health concerns, within a developmentally appropriate framework.

Education, Recovery Skills, and Family Support

The program incorporates academic support and vocational readiness to help teens regain stability in school or work environments. Family therapy and parent education are built into treatment to improve communication and build support systems that last beyond discharge. Aftercare planning includes referrals to community-based services and recovery-aligned routines to support long-term healing.

Focus on Underserved Youth and Inclusive Access

Summit SUD Program serves youth who may be impacted by trauma, justice system involvement, or unstable housing. Specialized services are available for pregnant or parenting teens, youth with HIV, and those with histories of violence or abuse. The program accepts Medicaid and state-funded insurance, making care accessible to families who may face barriers to treatment elsewhere.

How we research treatment facilities

Across the site, our team has conducted over 1,000 pre-admissions calls to better understand the patient experience, interviewed facility clinical leaders, performed facility background checks, and compared our information against trusted public data sources.

Our research process begins with data from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), accrediting bodies including The Joint Commission and CARF, government licensing agencies, and other trusted sources. From there, our team conducts significant original research, including:

- Pre-admissions calls: We speak with admissions staff to get a candid picture of patient experience.

- Background checks: We review complaints from past clients, media reports, actions taken by accrediting bodies, and positive recognition from notable organizations.

- Clinical interviews: We have in-depth conversations with clinical leadership, often lasting up to one hour, that give us a better understanding of clinical care.

- Data partnerships: We ingest and analyze exclusive data that provides information about in-network insurance status, cost, and more.

Research varies by facility. Each facility profile shows which research steps we completed and when each step was last performed. Learn more about our research process and background checks.

How we evaluate treatment facilities

These data help us develop a Trust Score for each facility—a simple letter grade that helps you assess how much confidence to place in a facility based on the information available to us. Trust Score considers accreditation, operating history, notable recognition, and concerns identified during our background check. Our Trust Score is an objective rating that is never influenced by advertiser payment. Learn more about our Trust Score methodology.

Important disclaimer

We cannot guarantee the quality of treatment at any facility. We cannot independently confirm the accuracy of every data point, and some information may become outdated or change over time. A Trust Score is a starting point, not a guarantee of treatment quality or outcomes. Please contact us if you would like to update or correct facility information.
