Next Step

Next Step’s Clinical team provides a comprehensive co-occurring assessment and develops a treatment plan that dictates the treatment needs and allows the program to individualize treatment for each youth.

All staff uses a trauma-informed approach when working with each youth. Staff works to understand how the youth’s past experiences impact the way they interact with the world. Understanding which underlying issues are contributing to their substance use and how their mental health needs are impacting their lives will guide their treatment, case management, and transition planning.  

The program understands that different youth will have varying needs and will have different visions of recovery for themselves. We recognize that culture, identity, community, heritage, ethnicity, race, ability and many other factors influence and shape a person’s needs, goals and definition of recovery and success. The program includes staff who have lived experience in recovery and who can provide their perspectives and appropriately share their experience to help the youth work towards making healthy changes.
