About this Facility
Phoenix House Youth Shelter provides short-term residential care for adolescent boys ages 14 to 17. Located on the campus of Phoenix House Academy at Wallum Lake, it provides a supportive environment allowing teens to attend local schools and adjust to a safe, healthy lifestyle supported by positive reinforcement and peer-to-peer role modeling. Our highly qualified staff members work closely with social workers, case managers, and the justice system to help our young residents acquire the life skills they need to become productive members of society and achieve successful family reunification.
Most major insurance plans and all major credit cards are accepted.
