Treatment
Healing women, strengthening families...
All of Lund’s treatment programs, whether residential or outpatient, are built around and focused on the specific needs of girls and women and their children.
Licensed by the State of Vermont, we offer a comprehensive approach that includes clinical and psychiatric services, health care, education and case management to pregnant and parenting young women, their children, and other key family members. Our therapists, teachers and caseworkers not only assist women in overcoming substance abuse or mental health issues, they help them identify their strengths and maximize their potential by offering parenting education, as well as life skills and job training.
We believe a secure, healthy woman who can support herself helps to ensure a strong, healthy family. Lund Staff are trained in and understand the importance of gender responsive treatment services.
