YHA has chosen to use the Mandt System in dealing with our youth.  The Mandt System stongly encourages and focuses the majority of the training area of recognizing youth in difficult situations prior to any physical intervention.  We train our staff to provide a safe environment for the youth to feel comfortable in making therapeutic changes.

YHA provides the following:
    - Monthy staff trainings by clinicians both in and outside of our company
    - Provides all staff with 32 hours  required training by law
    - Provides additional training due to the high priority it is placed in the
      company’s philosophy
    - Monthy parent meetings to help parent better understand the types of 
       therapy their adolescents are going through on a daily basis
    - All meetings are run by a licensed clinician

When you first meet Monie you will say to yourself, “I want whatever she took this morning!”  It is very difficult to match the energy level and passion that Monie carries with her. Monie trains our staff company wide on the policies and procedures along with the MANDT system. Training sessions to most people are a drag……not at YHA!
