Who We Are

We’re an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) built specifically for young adult men ages 18 to 32 who are navigating mental health challenges and substance use disorder. This isn’t a one-size-fits-all program borrowed from somewhere else and stretched to fit young men. It’s designed from the ground up for where they are in life, the pressures, the transitions, the identity questions, and yes, the struggles that come with this particular stage of becoming an adult.

Emerging adulthood is its own chapter, and it doesn’t always get treated that way. Somewhere between the structure of adolescence and the independence of full adulthood, a lot gets asked of young men all at once, finishing school, starting careers, building relationships, figuring out who they are outside of their family’s expectations. We understand that this stage of life comes with its own unique demands, and we built our program to meet young men right where they are in it, not where a program designed for teenagers or older adults assumes they should be.

We serve young men throughout the greater Chicago area. Families trust us because we understand this stage of life.
