A few Frequently Asked Questions about Triumph Youth Services:

 

*What is Triumph Youth Services?

Triumph Youth Services is an association of close proximity Residential Treatment Centers and Outpatient Programs centralized in beautiful Brigham City Utah. Our programs are all unified due to a proven program treatment model, strict structure, support and leadership. Triumph Youth Services also offers top notch academics on campus provided by the Triumph Academy a fully accredited fully staffed nonprofit 501c3 organization.

 

*Is Triumph Youth Services Licensed?

Yes. Triumph Youth Services is fully licensed by the Utah Department of Human Services. We adhere to all of the scrupulous standards set forth by the State of Utah Department of Human Services Office of Licensing.

 

*Can we tour the facility?

Absolutely. We welcome all parents, family members, educational consultants, school districts and other professionals to visit our program anytime to experience the Triumph Youth Services program first hand. If you would like to schedule a tour, please call anytime during office hours (435) 494-1740.

 

*Is Triumph Youth Services co-ed?

No, Triumph Youth Services only accepts male students ages 12-21.

 

*Where do Triumph Youth Services students come from?

Students are placed in our Residential Treatment Centers via private referrals (from families, guardians, adoption agencies, trusts, etc.), educational consultant referrals, school district referrals, and international referrals.

Students are placed at Triumph by their families or other caring professionals. The results of a child’s negative behaviors can weigh heavily on a parent and the need for immediate assistance to salvage their son’s chance for a successful future is evident. Triumph Youth Services provides strict structure, programming and the appropriate boundaries required for most students to learn the skills needed to become productive family members and citizens.

 

*What is the parental involvement at Triumph Youth Services?

At Triumph Youth Services parents are an integral part of the program and treatment services. When the students, their parents, clinicians and staff work together the chances for ultimate success and overall happiness are much better. Along with minimum weekly updates, we provide minimum quarterly team meetings designed to keep everyone updated and working together as a team. We focus more on solutions to problems rather than the problems themselves. We ask each person involved to take responsibility for their part and do what it takes to assist in the overall growth process. Each parent will also receive a parent manual not only explaining the program, but also giving the parents many of the same assignments to ponder and complete along with their child. Dealing with delicate teenage issues, past and present possible family issues and more serious mental health issues can be very difficult for all parties involved; thus, we work on these together with a common goal to change the negative into lasting positive success.

 

*How often will we have contact with our son?

Students are allowed to call home on a weekly basis depending on his behavior and treatment. Each student usually receives an additional call home during therapy with his primary therapist.

 

*Are students placed at Triumph Youth Services allowed to go home for weekend visits, holiday visits, etc.?

To ensure proper implementation of the program and treatment, it is in the best interest of the student to remain at the Triumph Youth Services program until the student’s therapist and treatment team recommends a visit away from the program community boundaries. Home visits and even holiday visits usually take place towards the end of the students programming when they are much farther progressed in their treatment and are ready for all of the stimuli and stresses that come from visits away from program community boundaries.

 

*Are there specific dates for enrollment?

No, you may enroll your child at anytime throughout the year.

 

*How do we transport an unwilling teenager to Triumph Youth Services?

As part of the admissions process, our admissions director will work closely with you to determine the best way to safely transport your child to our program. We will assist with transporting youth every way possible and in severe cases there are many quality transport companies that specialize in the transport of very reluctant and unwilling teenagers.
