Adolescent Recovery: Clint Eastwood Youth Program
Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula 's Clint Eastwood Youth Program (CEYP) provides a structured program to treat drug and alcohol abuse problems for adolescents, 12 to 18 years old.
Help for Teenagers
The staff of the Clint Eastwood Youth Program is dedicated to providing the highest quality of care to meet the individual needs of teenagers.
Our multidisciplinary treatment has a variety of components including assessment, treatment planning, education, support, family evaluation, family treatment, therapy; individual and family, drug/alcohol testing, medical evaluation of drug/alcohol concerns, family support group, and aftercare. As well, there are various treatment staff available as part of the program and by consultation (there may be additional charges). Insurance often covers treatment. Our individualized, small program approach allows us to address the complexities of teenage problems and give teens and their families the support and care needed during times of difficulty.
Our goal is to provide a balance of structure, guidance, and responsibility with understanding, support and warmth.
