(Print page)
For over 25 years, The Chisholm 30 (formerly called the Chisholm House) program has been a cost-effective resource to court and social service placed youth in need of a consequence. The program stresses accountability for behavior and emotional management in order to reduce the need for further out-of-home placement. This gender-responsive program challenges youth and teaches responsibility through its cognitive behavioral approach. Needs vary by individual and as such, we offer a 14 to 21 or 20 to 30 day program option.
