What is a group home for teens?

Group homes are supervised living spaces for teens who need mental health care. They may be private or state run. Some are single sex, and others accommodate both boys and girls.

The following are common features of group homes:

  • Safety and supervision: Group homes offer a secure setting with oversight from trained professionals.
  • Peer interaction: Teens engage with peers facing similar struggles, forming bonds and offering mutual support.
  • Life skills training: Adolescents learn important skills essential for daily life.

Limitations of traditional youth group homes

Traditional group homes for troubled teens provide stability, but most cannot effectively address severe behavioral, mental health, or substance use challenges. Here are a few shortcomings to consider:

  • No specialized care: Basic therapy may not adequately address the complex issues of troubled teens.
  • Lack of personal attention: Group homes tend to have a one-size-fits-all approach and are ill-prepared to offer personalized care.
  • Limited academic support: Group homes have structured routines but may not offer educational help.
  • Only basic skills training: Group homes often teach basic skills but do not offer comprehensive training for teens with severe mental health issues.

Unlike traditional teen group homes, Avery’s House offers specialized care tailored to each teen’s unique needs.
