Education Services
The Education Services Division provides staff development training and assessments to teachers and administrators in elementary, middle and secondary school settings. Our education experts share the concepts, strategies and methods of the Girls and Boys Town Education Model through training such as The Well-Managed Classroom, Specialized Classroom Management, Administrative Intervention and Dealing With Bullying.
Juvenile Justice Services
Rehabilitating youth requires more than simple incarceration,
coercion and forced compliance with rules. Now, more than ever,
young offenders need to learn the skills that will encourage them
to be responsible and accountable for their actions. Research
indicates basic social and life skills enable youth to make better
decisions and take control of their lives. Juvenile Justice Services
provides professional development for facilities, program staff
and other professionals to get involved in the rehabilitation
process and provide effective intervention.
Behavioral Health Services
Girls and Boys Town Psychoeducational Treatment Model (popularly
known as PEM®) is a nationally recognized model of care that
combines social skill instruction with effective intervention
strategies. PEM® involves daily, ongoing teaching to support
youth throughout their treatment, creating safe environments and
improving youth treatment outcomes.
