New Haven : A Therapeutic Haven and School for Girls

2010 Outcome Statistics



New Haven is committed to providing treatment that works. In doing so, we actively gather outcome data using nationally standardized tests. The graph above illustrates results from the YOQ, an instrument that measures actual change in functioning. The lower the score on the YOQ, the less difficulties someone has. The red graph represents the average score for a girl entering New Haven, while the green graph represents the average score for a girl when she leaves New Haven. Scores below the yellow line are in the healthy range.

The Proof is in the Percentages

At New Haven, we don't expect you to just take our word for it when we say that our program heals families.

We invite you to speak directly with parents and students who have experienced New Haven first hand. We also encourage you to review our comprehensive outcome data-data that proves New Haven's effectiveness. We've been gathering and analyzing this information for ten years and have published formal outcome studies since 2007. You'll find the results quite impressive.

So take us up on our offer to speak with alumni parents. Just give us a call at Phone 888-884-9650
and we'll provide you with a list of parents and former students who can relate to your struggles, offer you support, and give you honest, firsthand insight into the New Haven experience.

Meanwhile, take a look at the following snapshot of our outcome statistics and compare them to those of any program in the behavioral healthcare field. You'll see that the proof really is in the percentages.
