The Broward Youth Treatment Center (BYTC) provides substance abuse treatment services to males, ages 13 to 18, in a non-secure residential commitment program while providing gender-specific programming for boys with program components and services that comprehensively address the special needs of adolescent boys.
BYTC provides behavioral health services, psycho-educational groups, anger management, victim awareness, social skills, moral development, and gang intervention. The program also provides individualized mental health and substance abuse services in a trauma-focused, restraint-free environment for the youth.
The anticipated average length of stay depends on the youth's pace of success in completing the individualized treatment plan and goals.
