Hillcrest provides vital services for youth in Indianapolis struggling with substance use disorders and behavioral challenges. Their accessible programs include a short-term emergency shelter offering 4-5 day stays for young people in crisis, providing basic necessities in a safe environment. For youth under court order showing signs of substance use disorders, Hillcrest offers residential care options. Their structured outpatient substance use program focuses on addiction education, helping young people understand the disease model, recognize family patterns, identify and manage cravings, and develop essential sober living skills. This program follows a two-phase approach: eight psychoeducational sessions followed by four counseling sessions for continued support. Beyond addiction services, Hillcrest addresses other youth challenges through specialized programs for those involved in theft or displaying aggressive behaviors. They also support young and expectant mothers with educational resources focused on healthy child development. Throughout all their services, Hillcrest maintains a commitment to affordability for families in need.
