About Us
WINGS opened in August 2007, as a residential treatment program for adolescents, ages 13 through 18. We are located 70 miles west of Minneapolis, in the town of Litchfield, Minnesota. Licensed by the State of Minnesota, through the Department of Health and Human Services, we can accommodate 20 residents (10 male and 10 female) on an inpatient basis. The length of stay varies for each client, and is tailored to meet client needs.
We strive to create an environment that is non-institutional and as comfortable as possible. Our program offers a school component designed to keep our clients current with their education, a Family Education Program, aftercare for addiction issues, mental health offerings with gender specific treatments, and chemical dependency rehabilitation based on the 12 steps. With a small client to staff ratio we are able to provide attentive and personalized care that meets the needs of each individual we serve.
Our devoted, highly skilled and credentialed staff makes us one of the finest adolescent treatment centers in the country. We employ a dual licensed Marriage and Family Therapist/Licensed Alcohol and Drug counselor, offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing), and are equipped to handle dual diagnosis mental health issues.
Our philosophy is based on our belief that effective treatment requires:
- An individualized model
- An interdisciplinary staff
- A willingness to allow each client to find him/her way in recovery
- Strong family and continuing care components
Each treatment plan is individualized and designed to meet the specific needs of that person. Since addiction influences every aspect of a person’s life, our holistic approach ensures that no aspect is overlooked. And our professional multidisciplinary team employs a variety of clinical modalities to ensure the best possible outcome for each of our clients.
If you are in need of a chemical dependency treatment program for your son or daughter you have come to the right place. Please feel free to Contact Us. We want to help in any way possible!
