Boys Group Home for Kids

For troubled teen boys struggling with addiction, depression, anxiety, poor academic performance, sexual promiscuity, and more, Group Homes often provide the setting and structure they desperately need to start the recovery process. Restore Troubled Teens has a comprehensive directory of the top Group Home, wilderness therapy camps, therapeutic boarding schools, and residential treatment facilities in Louisiana and all over the United States.

What is a Group Home?

In the past, Group Homes referred to shelters that housed mentally and/ or physically handicapped individuals. This is not the case anymore. Today’s Group Homes provide 24-hour supervision and support, as well as therapy and schooling, for troubled teens that need both a safe and structured environment to work through their issues and problematic behaviors. However, unlike an institution, they maintain a home like environment that requires the teen to perform chores, such as washing dishes and keeping their bedroom clean.

Although the best Group Homes for boys may not be located in Louisiana, it is important to understand that Group Homes accept troubled teens from all parts of the country. Parents often find that it is beneficial to send their teen away from his or her current environment and negative influences. Teens that enter a Group Home away from Louisiana are more likely to have long-term success than those who enter a facility near their residence.

Restore Troubled Teens only represents problems that use established therapeutic interventions, place importance on academic and emotional development, and provide the structure troubled teens need to thrive. We only recommend the top service providers that have a proven history of helping troubled teens begin the path to recovery.

The experienced consultants at Restore Troubled Teens are always available to assist and offer guidance to the parents of struggling teens.

There is pragmatic and empirical evidence that reveals that residential treatment centers, and other Group Home concepts, offer effective treatment plans that help troubled teens confront their problems is a manner that will produce efficacious results. According to The Addiction Recovery Guide, Residential Treatment Centers are immensely effective due to their multidisciplinary approach, and their structured environment.

The Advantages of Co-ed Residential Treatment Centers

While there are many residential treatment centers that are designed to serve either girls or boys exclusively, there are some boarding school treatment centers that are co-ed, and while co-ed treatment centers can be a challenge, they do have some advantages that make them worth considering in certain situations.

One of the most prevalent benefits of a co-ed environment is that it better simulates a natural social environment, and it allows for a more balanced interaction as far as the clients are concerned. The diversity in the living environment is also essential to the client’s development of interpersonal skills when it comes to the opposite sex.

The Disadvantages of Co-ed Residential Treatment Centers

When young teens are dealing with issues, such as substance abuse, addiction, depression and more, having the opposite sex around can serve as an immense distraction. For example, a young teen girl who is struggling with promiscuity will be at greater risk of negatively engaging her erroneous behavior.
