It was great to see everyone again in Florida. With Holidays fast approaching, we just wanted to send out a reminder that our Oxbow Academy program (A blending of best practices and philosophy form RCA, DA & DR to serve the sexually dependent and aggressive teen population) will be open this January 1st.
We have quietly been running a state funded program for sexually aggressive teen boys for the last six years. That program is called PineCreek Ranch. This is where we have been refining the therapeutic model and residential safety measures to be used at Oxbow. We currently have three private students in this program who will be transferring to Oxbow once the facility is open.
Each student will receive a full Psychosexual Evaluation performed by Dr. Chris Durham. Dr Durham is a forensic psychologist that RedCliff has had on staff the last several years. Chris will work with each student to ascertain the following: Cognitive functioning, level of emotional functioning, coping strategies as well as the history of possible abuse, sexual reactivity, level of interest and acting out behaviors.
Testing battery includes:
Cognitive and Achievement
Wechsler Intelligence Scales (WISC-IV/WAIS-lll)
Wide Range Achievement Test (WRAT-4)
Diagnostic/Behavioral
Beck Youth Inventories, 2nd Edition (BYI-ll)
Trauma Symptom Checklist for Children (TSCC)
Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL)
Risk Assessment
Structured Assessment of Violence Risk in Youth (SAVRY)
Juvenile Sex Offender Assessment Protocol (J-SOAP)
Resiliency Scales for Adolescents (RSA)
Sexual Issues
Multiphasic Sexual Inventory, Adolescent (MSI)
Psychosexual History Form
The daily rate for Oxbow is $258.00 per day with the above listed testing as an upfront cost of $1,250.00. Parents will also be eligible to apply for student loans through Key Bank and PrepGate because education and academic services are provided through Discovery Academy.
We fully anticipate that some students will come to us from other programs. We currently have a student that attended Second Nature as well as Telos. As therapeutic efforts began to work, he disclosed a pretty serious event that happened prior to entering treatment. However, the student began to decompensate and soon became unmanageable in a standard RTC milieu. We have seen students such as this in our own treatment facilities. For this reason, Oxbow Academy was developed.
Please call 801-491-2270 with questions or learn more at www.oxbowacademy.net
Any of us will be able to help you.
