New Directions is a placement agency which provides, shelter, residential and juvenile aftercare services as well as community based services; for youth and families. We are a licensed facility to house up to 42 youth between the ages of eight and 18 years of age. Placements are generally juvenile offenders and children in need of care. Placements and services are provided for JJA, SRS, Juvenile Intake, Law Enforcement agencies and parents.

The goal of New Directions is to help foster empowerment to youth and families at risk for SRS intervention and custody, law enforcement involvement and JJA custody. By providing programs consistent with prevention and intervention, New Directions is able to assist youth and families with programs geared towards family/youth safety and stabilization.
