Drug and alcohol experimentation is fairly common during adolescence. If the problem persists however, adolescent substance abuse can become problematic and affect the child's life due to higher risks of high school drop-out, adult addiction etc... If a parent knows of a substance abuse problem it is better to handle it immediately and intervene as quick as possible. There are drug treatment facilities for adolescents in a variety of different settings.
There are treatment centers in Cassadaga which treat adolescents in a manner which they can continue their education at the same time, which would be considered an outpatient program. These programs deliver counseling and behavioral modification therapy to teens on an individual and group basis 2-3 times per week. For adolescents requiring more aggressive intervention, there are programs that offer inpatient and residential treatment so that the youth can benefit from full engagement type treatment and not be distracted by their peers. If drug and alcohol abuse has been a persistent problem, it is very likely that locational factors trigger their substance abuse issue in which case inpatient/residential treatment is the ideal option.
