On-campus Therapeutic Intervention
Sometimes this is your last hope in helping your child. Interventions such as school-based and outpatient counseling have not been successful in treating maladaptive behavior. Or maybe there is a crisis or need for intensive therapeutic treatment. At Bellefaire JCB, we offer several distinct residential programs located in secure units on our 32-acre campus. Our programs, accredited by The Joint Commission, are specifically ideal for youth 11 through 17 with acute crises and/or prolonged and pervasive behavioral problems,
Bellefaire JCB offers two self-contained, co-ed, LGBTQ+ friendly units in a safe, secure setting where their path toward healing can begin. Bellefaire specializes in intensive dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)—a cognitive behavioral treatment approach that emphasizes the development of four skill sets: mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance.
The ITU provides a short-term therapeutic setting for youth who have:
- Significant mental health and psychiatric needs
- Demonstrated self-injurious, risk-taking and aggressive behaviors

The Reserve School
While in Residential Treatment, students attend The Reserve School on Bellefaire's campus. The school fills a unique need for highly clinical and therapeutic treatment in a small setting coupled with substantive special education programming.
A chartered, nonpublic school for grades 6-12, the program offers core classes and electives with a focus on life skills, critical thinking and collaborative problem solving. Our three classrooms include 10 students, one interventionist and two educational aides. The Reserve School takes a multidisciplinary, integrated approach to address the individual needs of each student, building upon their strengths as they progress through treatment in a Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) residential milieu.

Autism
Monarch Boarding Academy (MBA) is a co-ed therapeutic residential treatment program for individuals with Autism ages 8 through 20. The program focuses on developing communication and life skills so residents can learn how to function better – allowing them to return home or to a less-restrictive setting. Residents live in secure, home-like cottages based on peer relationship skill sets.
This program is designed and staffed to enhance social, behavioral, communicative, functional, and academic growth. Each resident’s day, from wake-up to bedtime, is highly structured and consistent. All activities – from personal grooming to group meal preparation to recreation – are designed to complement classroom experiences at Monarch School. Residential and school staff coordinate behavioral and education plans to ensure consistency in both settings, thereby leading to greater and accelerated gains.

Independent Living
This is a community-based program for ages 17 through 20 that teaches independent living skills. Participants in this program are at risk for homelessness or have been homeless in the past.

Clients are required to adhere to several criteria including:
