Intensive Day Treatment (IDT)
The Intensive Day Treatment Program is designed to support students during a time of crisis or re-entry to the community, easing them back into the routine and reality of everyday life. Student evaluation and treatment planning are at no cost to local school districts. The program is short-term and transitional, yet comprehensive. It is interdisciplinary and multi-agency regulated and funded, with links to the family, the home school district, and local mental health and educational systems. It relies on other community services to provide follow-up in the areas of housing, substance abuse and mental health.
Intensive Day Treatment is cost effective. Its goal is to keep children in the community, rather than outside placement. A small staff of highly trained professionals service children from ages 6-18. The only cost to the home school district is for educational services.
Staffing: 2 Teachers, 1 Paraprofessional, & related services
Cost Formula: This program requires a base fee from each participating district plus a per diem rate for each student placed in the program.
