Kelly Avenue School offers therapeutic schooling that meets youth where they are, at many levels: cognitive, emotional, and social. We use methods to educate youth the way they learn best. Our school is partnered with North Wasco School District and our youth are referred from the high school. The school day helps students catch up on credits and offers classes in the morning. In the afternoon, there are electives and therapeutic skills. Our small classroom is very flexible to enhance the educational, emotional, and social needs of our students. We offer students and families mental health and counseling services, psychological and behavioral skill development, addiction treatment, and sex offender treatment.

There has been a growing number of foster children and a shortage of therapeutic foster homes. The Next Door saw this urgent need and we responded. The purchase of this new home allows us to care for youth in need by providing a safe and nurturing home, staffed by caring professionals.

Therapeutic Foster Care, also called Treatment Foster Care, is a higher level of foster care serving children and teens ages 6-18 who have emotional, behavioral, and/or medical needs. Most of our youth have been abused or neglected and function developmentally younger than their biological age. Through trauma-informed care, these youth can heal, grow and develop with the support from a caring foster parent. To learn more, email fosterinfo@nextdoorinc.org.
