Derryll & Larry Share a Laugh

"I guess I believe that any and all of the Treatment Services staff should be employee of the month. Day after day they demonstrate a high degree of professionalism that goes far beyond the routine and normal daily activities of most therapists, teachers or others working with kids and families. I see what the Treatment Services staff do day to day in bringing to life a new beginning for kids who have been abused and thrown away. The care, compassion and amazing self-giving of each of them go far beyond words or any recognition that I could ever express or give.

"Because of their dedication, commitment and true love for these kids they come back each day with a renewed sense of hope and drive to change the world one child at a time. I am humbled and filled with a sense of wonder and amazement.

"Day after day they do this work without much recognition outside Treatment Services and the support they give each other. They are professionals who have vision and mission motivated by some internal drive to make a difference. To give anyone of the Treatment Services staff recognition is to recognize all of them and the pride they have in doing what they do.

They should all be employee of the month each and every month. I do not know if people fully realize just what these amazing miracle workers do."

Treatment Services

Treatment Services provides several programs helping teens and children facing tremendous challenges.
At The Klahre House Alternative Day Treatment School, professional staff members provide a safe and caring therapeutic environment where young people begin to heal. Teenagers at the school gain tools to help them build healthy, happy lives.

The Community Attention Homes program helps youth at risk needing higher levels of care. The 90-day evaluation program includes comprehensive assessments, short-term mental health services and proctor home placement.

The Crisis Shelter takes in temporarily homeless youth who have not committed any crime on a 24-hour basis. Care is offered in specially trained homes in Hood River and Wasco counties.

When teenagers in foster care turn 18, they are released from the care of the state and must quickly learn to live on their own. The Independent Living Program helps them through this transition. Starting as young as age 14, we help foster youth identify their needs and learn how to become independent adults. We serve youth in Wasco, Hood River, Sherman and Gilliam Counties.

Through the Therapeutic Foster Care program, local teenagers who have been adjudicated for sexual offenses are assessed and given intensive treatment lasting 6 months to 2 years. These teenagers are often placed in foster homes during their treatment. Those who complete treatment are far less likely to commit similar offenses again.
Family Finding helps Department of Human Services caseworkers locate and reconnect the biological families of some foster children.
