Transitions is a less restricted residential therapeutic program for graduates of the Elk River Treatment Program.

Elk River Transitions provides a safe residential environment for residents to strengthen the therapeutic and academic gains made while in the Elk River Treatment Program (ERTP) or similar program. Sometimes after successfully completing ERTP, a resident may require additional time to work with counselors or complete academic courses.

The length of stay in the Transitions Program is determined by the identification of solid goals for the resident. The achievement of these goals is facilitated by strong relationships with a professional, competent and caring staff who work with the resident and his/her family as well as the family therapist.

Residents of Elk River Transitions:

    Attend group, individual and family therapy sessions
    Continue their education
    Participate in Equine Assisted Learning
    Earn weekly phone calls home
    Visit family regularly
    Earn periodic off-campus field trips with their Transitions' peers. Transitions residents may volunteer for community service projects
    Learn budgeting with funds provided by parents
    May correspond with family outside of immediate family and friends (with parent approval)
    Earn additional privileges (music, books, etc.)

We strive to keep our costs as low as possible and do not charge additional fees for application, academics, meals, accommodations, attire or gear required to participate in the program. Transport services, extensive psychological testing and some medical/nursing care (if necessary) may be billed separately by the providers.
