Description
Epworth is a residential and day treatment center for emotionally challenged adolescents, aged 11 - 18. We believe every child has infinite worth. Epworth began as an orphanage in 1864 and has grown into a beautiful 9.5 acre campus. Fifty-nine boys and girls recieve 24-hour intensive treatment, individual, group and family therapy, state certified special education, psychiatric consultation, comprehensive medical evaluation and care, recreation therapy and opportunities for spiritual growth. We also offer programs such as Family Focus Treatment, Transitional Living, Independent Living, Emergency Crisis Shelter, and have an Aging Out program. We offer strength based treatment.
