GATE HOUSE GROUP HOME
In June of 2006, The Children's Center of Hamden opened the Gate House Group Home. The Gate House Group Home is a program funded by a grant through the Department of Children and Families of Connecticut. It provides comprehensive services to 5 adolescent male youths between the ages of 14 and 21. The young men in the Gate House have histories of sexual abuse and have been in residential facilities prior to admission for treatment of sexualized behaviors. Youths housed at the Group Home are referred by the Department of Children and Famlies and are transitioned from residential programs from in and outside of the State of Connecticut. Services provided include: a therapeutic milieu coupled with behavior motivation; trauma informed individual and group therapy; family therapy; case management; medical services and psychiatric consultation.
