Admissions
For more than 90 years, Boys Town Nebraska/Iowa has been saving children and healing families by providing an integrated system of research-based, cutting-edge services. Services range from secure residential treatment to an outpatient clinic.
Many of these services provide a highly effective alternative to incarceration and have been employed with great success by juvenile justice systems across the United States for girls and boys from 10 to 17 years old. Behaviors of youth referred to our programs include:
- Criminal activity
- Drug and alcohol use
- Family problems
- Runaway behaviors
- Poor coping skills
- Anger and impulse control
- Lack of self-discipline
- History of truancy and school problems
Boys Town’s programs can help juvenile offenders learn social skills that enable them to interact and communicate effectively with others; employability skills that prepare them to enter the work force; and self-control skills that help them cope with situations in everyday life.
Youth are accepted throughout the year, so please contact our Admissions office anytime at 800-989-0000 or email admissions@boystown.org.
