It's ! Lakeview Center provides specialized residential care for youth through two foster care group homes: Arcadia Place and Cabot Heights.

Serving girls ages 13 to 17, Arcadia Place supports adolescents experiencing challenges related to mental health or substance use. Services include therapy, behavior management, education, medication management, and recreational activities — all designed to promote recovery, resilience and well-being.

Cabot Heights provides transitional or long-term foster care for boys ages 13 to 17 who have moderate to severe emotional or behavioral needs. Our team helps each youth build life skills and prepare for success in a family or independent setting, while achieving goals set by their child welfare team and court plan.

Together, these programs create safe, supportive spaces where young people can heal, grow and move toward brighter futures. 🌟
