Short-Term Residential Therapeutic Program

Koinonia Homes for Teens, a division of Koinonia Family Services, began in 1985 as an extension of Koinonia’s vision to provide for the needs of abused and delinquent children in a structured and nurturing setting. We currently have two short-term residential therapeutic homes in Placer County.

Koinonia’s short-term residential therapeutic homes are highly-structured, professional inpatient substance abuse and mental health treatment facilities for male and female adolescents. Each of our homes are spacious six-bed facilities which are licensed by the CA Department of Social Services/Community Care Licensing and certified for mental health treatment through the CA Department of Health Care Services. Our program is highly-structured and treatment-focused with strong physical training and life skills components.

Community involvement and support is vital to the emotional recovery of these youth. This support frequently comes through community based organizations, local churches and service clubs, all of which assist with treatment needs, financial aid, and in-kind donations are always needed and much appreciated. Donations of furniture, household items, sporting equipment and financial support are always needed and greatly appreciated.
