Cape START
Cape Cod Short Term Adolescent Residential Treatment (Cape START)
The Cape START Program (Short Term Adolescent Residential Treatment) serves the residents of Southeastern Massachusetts, Cape Cod and the Islands. This co-educational group home averages a 6 month length of stay. The program is community based and provides treatment to youth who need more services and supervision than offered in foster care, and youth transitioning from intensive residential treatment programs.
Contracted clinical services include individual, group and family therapy as well as child psychiatry. Many residents attend the public schools in the Falmouth area and are expected to return to a family setting or live independently after their treatment program.
