Avenues
To Success first mental health program in Charlotte, NC, opened its doors to provide Therapeutic Day
Treatment Services to at-risk youth with in the school setting. Avenues To Success is a clinical treatment
program for children who are exhibiting ongoing difficulties in the school, community, or home.
ATS focuses on
providing children with serious emotional and behavioral disorders. Services are provided on-site and
skills for success are reinforced directly within the school environment. The goal is to nurture a
healthy and functional environment for children with emotional and behavioral problems, utilizing a
holistic, family approach.
We teach and reinforce appropriate social skills and behaviors to ultimately
reduce the risk of more restrictive educational placements, out-of-home placements, hospitalizations,
and judicial system and/or social service involvement. Parents and guardians are seen as an integral
part of each child's treatment. They are involved in parent support groups, educational groups, and
any individual meetings required for their child.
