Residential Services 

Elk Hill's roots are in residential services. We've been providing teens with safe, supportive spaces to live, heal, and grow

for over five decades. 

Comprehensive Support 

We help teens build the skills and confidence to thrive and flourish in

their communities. 

Successful Transitions 

The goal isn’t to bring young people into these programs, but to help them transition out — and continue making progress once they do. 

Education and Skill Building 

We offer a full range of flexible education options, skill-building, and recreational options.
