Since 1966, we've served youth who struggle with severe mental illness, offering the highest quality of care in the most home-like environment possible. Our mission is to equip both youth and their families to become contributing members of their community by providing compassionate psychiatric and behavioral health care. Youth Home is committed to exceptional treatment for families as a PRTF resi

dential treatment facility for youth ages 12 to 17. Our program addresses each child's entire wellbeing: including medical, psychiatric, social, physical, and academic needs. We accept TRICARE® East, TRICARE® West, CHAMPVA, and Medicaid. We have relied on the donations of our local supporters since 1966, and continue to do so today! If you have a heart for children who struggle with mental illness, we strongly encourage you to support our program.

Military-connected teens can face challenges that many of us will never experience, from uncertainty about the future and worry about a parent’s safety to the instability that can come with frequent moves and changes in schools.

A new report from the National Military Family Association offers a sobering look at how those experiences can affect the mental well-being of military-connected youth:

• 22% demonstrated low mental well-being
• 29% reported thoughts of self-harm in the last six months
• 16% reported acting on those thoughts

Behind every statistic is a young person who deserves support, stability, and hope. We strive to provide that every day at Youth Home. We proudly accept TRICARE and offer travel assistance for military families who need our services.

Military families don't have to navigate these challenges alone. 💜

Growth happens through connection. 🌱

One former patient shared how having supportive peers and staff helped them build confidence, strengthen relationships, and develop healthier ways to handle life's challenges.

At Youth Home, we're committed to making sure the teens in our care know they always have someone in their corner as they work toward healing. 💚

We’d like to give a HUGE thank you to First Security Bank for supporting Youth Home’s Crowned with Care initiative! 💜

Every teen deserves to feel valued, confident, and comfortable being themselves. This generous donation will help us provide hair care products and professional styling services that meet each teen’s individual needs and honor their unique cultural backgrounds. Support like this sends an important message to the youth in our care: who you are matters.

We’re incredibly grateful for First Security Bank’s generosity and for the dedication of Youth Home Board Member Kinetra Washington, whose hard work is helping make Crowned with Care possible.

Our friends at Jumpstart Mastery made another trip to Youth Home to continue helping our staff strengthen their de-escalation skills!

They visited us last month to share techniques for responding to teens in crisis by building trust and showing empathy. This time, they taught a group of our staff how to share those same skills with their colleagues.

This Train-the-Trainer session will pave the way for our staff to pass their knowledge on to the rest of the team, helping ensure that challenging situations can be met with trauma-informed care, understanding and intention.

Congratulations to our Recreation Director, Shelly Zellner, on being named the Arkansas Council for Behavioral Health’s Practitioner of the Year!

Shelly has been with Youth Home for more than three decades, showing teens that it’s possible to still have fun while healing. Her passion for Youth Home’s mission and the youth we serve shines through every day. She often describes her job as “getting to play for a living,” and anyone who knows her can see just how much she truly loves what she does.

This recognition is very much deserved! We’re so grateful for the dedication, joy and care Shelly brings to Youth Home and to the young people we serve. 💚

Every teen deserves care that meets them where they are. 💚

One parent shared how Youth Home's individualized approach helped their daughter feel more comfortable opening up and talking about her emotions.

At Youth Home, we believe understanding what each teen needs is an important part of helping them grow and develop healthier ways to navigate challenges. 🌱
