When outpatient care isn't enough

When a young person needs more support than outpatient care can provide

Residential care may be appropriate when emotional or behavioral symptoms are disrupting safety, daily functioning, school, or family stability and the youth can be safely supported outside an acute hospital or locked setting. DiVnity offers a structured therapeutic environment where youth can step away from immediate triggers, build practical coping skills, and prepare for a safe return to family and community life.

  • Is not safe or stable at home or in a less restrictive setting
  • Has not responded adequately to outpatient treatment
  • Needs 24-hour structure, supervision, and behavioral health support
  • Needs intensive skill-building and coordinated treatment
  • Would benefit from a calm, predictable environment
  • Requires family, school, medication, and aftercare coordination

Youth referred to DiVnity may be experiencing:

Admission depends on a clinical review of safety, medical stability, treatment needs, staffing, rooming compatibility, authorization, and current capacity — a diagnosis alone does not determine placement, and DiVnity does not replace emergency evaluation or acute hospitalization for a youth in crisis.
