Cinnamon Hills provide a safe and healthy environment. Our staff of 195 full-time professionals serve, treat, and educate 132 students.
The staff is made up of doctors, nurses, therapists, educators, child-care staff, administrators, and support staff.
Our team creates an environment that builds youth. Cinnamon Hills treats youth whose potential has been stopped because of emotional, attitudinal or chemical dependency issues; whose parents want them in a safe secure environment to address and work on their issues with staff sensitive to their particular challenges.
Our program does not have a boot camp or out-door program approach to treatment.
We treat and educate male and female youth in separate programs; we are not co-educational.
