Claudia Black Young Adult Center

Claudia Black Young Adult Center It can be hard to ask for help, and we see young adults come in every day who are resistant, skeptical, or scared.

They’re not totally sure they have a problem, and if they do see an issue, they may not be completely committed to addressing it. We also get to see those same individuals transformed as they leave with a sense of hope, new skills, and direction.

April is Alcohol Awareness Month—a time to look beyond the surface of addiction and understand its deeper impact.

As our Senior Fellow, Dr. Tian Dayton, shares, addiction doesn’t just affect the individual—it shapes the entire family system, often in ways that go unseen for years.

The effects can live on in relationships, emotional patterns, and the ways we learn to cope, long after substance use stops. That’s why healing requires more than addressing the behavior—it requires addressing the underlying trauma.

At The Meadows, we focus on treating the whole person and the relational impact of addiction, helping individuals and families move toward lasting, sustainable recovery.

From your late teens into your 20s, it’s a time of figuring out who you are, where you belong, and what comes next. This stage, known as emerging adulthood, is recognized as a distinct phase of development, one that comes with unique challenges and needs. Research shows that young adults benefit from care designed specifically for this in-between stage, not treatment built for adolescents or older adults.

When mental health or substance use challenges are part of that journey, it can leave young adults feeling stuck or uncertain.

At the Claudia Black Young Adult Center, our programming is intentionally built for emerging adults. We meet young people where they are, with developmentally relevant care that supports identity exploration, builds life skills, and addresses trauma, addiction, and co-occurring mental health challenges through connection, structure, and experiential work.

Last week, we had the opportunity to bring our Meet The Meadows event to Los Angeles, bringing together clinicians, partners, and leaders for a day of connection and shared learning.

From thoughtful conversations to meaningful new relationships, the event reflected what matters most to us, creating space to collaborate, learn, and deepen our collective understanding of trauma-focused care. It also created space to align around what truly drives this work forward: patient-centered care, sustainable recovery, and our shared commitment to advancing the field of behavioral healthcare.

We’re especially grateful to our clinical leaders, including Dr. Georgia Fourlas, Dr. Kevin McCauley, and Dr. Claudia Black, for sharing their expertise and helping make the experience so impactful.

Moments like these are a reminder of the passion and commitment behind the work we do every day.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped bring this event to life.

Grief related to animal loss is often overlooked, leaving many people without a place to fully acknowledge what they are carrying. Animal loss can also elicit a larger emotional response, possibly triggering unresolved trauma, grief, or childhood abandonment. This response may also include feelings related to loss of identity. Our Led by Love workshop was created specifically to support those healing from this grief.

Led by experienced, licensed therapists, this multi-day, experiential therapy workshop offers a supportive, grounded space to reflect, connect, and process alongside others who understand the depth of these relationships

With gender-specific programs, experiential therapies, and peer support, CBC meets young adults where they are, addressing emotional trauma, depression, ADHD, anxiety, and addiction in a safe, understanding environment.

Healing at CBC isn’t one-size-fits-all, it’s tailored to the unique needs of young adults ready to build resilience, insight, and meaningful independence.
