Service Description: F. W. Schumacher (FWS) is a lived-in treatment program that operates within a therapeutic milieu for children and youth.

The program accepts children and youth who are experiencing psychological difficulties within the home or community setting with the plan of reintegrating them into their family system or an acceptable social system in collaboration with the family and/or referring organization. The program is designed to provide intervention services in a supportive and structured environment, allowing the child/youth to develop skills.

Children and youth are referred with an existing network of services in place, which the lived-in program joins to assist in meeting specific and identified goals. The roles and responsibilities of family and service providers do not change during the period of placement thus providing continuity through the child/youth’s return to their home community.



Application: Referrals can be made by a NEOFACS staff or a parent/legal guardian. Referrals are reviewed for acceptance by an Admissions Committee.
