Day Treatment Services provide six intensive classroom-based programs, that combine a structured milieu with mental health interventions and special education programming. These services are for children, youth and their families, with complex social, emotional and behavioural needs that interfere with their successful adjustment within community school environments. The needs of the children and youth admitted to Day Treatment are unable to be met through less intrusive interventions.
