Residential Recovery Program:
A Note to Parents
Since
1985, Advent Group Ministries has helped thousands
of teens to break free from alcohol and drug addiction.
We operate the only licensed residential recovery
program for teens ages 13-18 in Santa Clara County.
Advent's staff of caring, committed professionals
live with the kids 24-hours a day, striving to
develop in our clients a commitment to lasting
recovery.
Your child may be placed in
Advent's residential program in one of two
ways:
The first way is to be appointed
through the court system.
If your child has committed
a crime and is currently involved with the county
or state court system(s), you may have some influence
where your child will ultimately be placed. Make
a request to the social worker or public defender
assigned to your child's case. If given the opportunity
you may be able to speak directly to the judge
and request that he be placed at Advent Group
Ministries.
The second way is through
voluntary enrollment.
If your teen is not yet involved
in the court system but you are concerned that
he or she is on the wrong path and in need of
direction you may choose to place him or her at Advent
voluntarily.
For more information, email
us or call Ted Parker, Intake Coordinator, at
