Carrus Care is dedicated to helping children ages 8-17 and their families overcome challenges associated with mental health and behavioral issues. Our Partial Hospitalization (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient (IOP) programs utilize evidence-based therapies and ensure that each child is seen, heard, and known in a safe environment.
Both programs provide your child with the opportunity to receive effective treatment during the day, Monday through Friday, and return home in the evening.
