What is a group home for teens?
A group home is a supervised living space for teens who need special mental health care. They may be private or state run. Some are single sex, while others accommodate both boys and girls. Group homes typically provide the following:
- Safety and supervision: Group homes offer a secure setting with oversight by trained professionals.
- Peer interaction: Teens in group homes engage with peers facing similar struggles, forming bonds and offering mutual support.
- Life skills training: Group homes typically teach adolescents basic skills essential for daily living.

Limitations of traditional youth group homes in Idaho Falls
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 common limitations of these facilities:
- No advanced training: Group homes teach basic skills but do not offer comprehensive training or specialized therapies for teens with severe mental health issues.
- Lack of personal attention: The uniform approach of most group homes make them ill-prepared to offer personalized care.
- Limited academic support: Group homes have structured routines but often lack educational services.
- Only generalized care: The basic support methods used in group homes may not adequately address the complex issues of troubled teens.
Unlike traditional teen group homes, Avery’s House offers specialized care tailored to each teen’s unique needs.
