Daughters and Sisters

Residential addiction treatment program for young women ages 12 to 18 on probation. Participants reside in PLEA family care with families trained in detox, stabilization, and support recovery, while receiving day, evening, and weekend treatment at a separate facility. The six-month program includes individual and group counselling, parent-teen mediation, ongoing assessment, teacher-supervised education, and social and recreational activities. Tailored to individual needs and strengths, the program aims to increase self-esteem while decreasing substance abuse, criminal activity, and high-risk behaviour. Referrals accepted from probation officers, parents, social workers, counsellors, or agencies. Office hours are 8:30 am to 4:30 pm Monday to Friday. Funded by the Ministry of Children and Family Development (MCFD).
