Several county agencies are asking that we offer a less costly residential program to assist in present budget cuts. In response, Mended Reeds is offering a boys program for only $231 per day. We have significantly reduced our overheads, enabling us to offer more clinical and residential services at a lower rate. By relocating our residential program to a smaller facility, we are providing high-quality clinical treatment and 24-hour supervision for boys at a savings. We are passing the savings on to county agencies in hope that more children can be served during the worst of times.
This 28-bed program offers more counseling services and a higher staff to resident ratio than any program we have offered previously. Each resident has a personal therapist, mental health group leader, contracted psychiatrist, med/somatic nurse, and contracted psychologist. Also, specialists for addictions counseling, sexual abuse, independent living, and much more are available through our community mental health division.
