About Us TCI is a high-end, 48-bed, residential facility, licensed by DCFS in the State of Illinois and accredited by CARF. TCI provides an intensive, 24-hour therapeutic treatment environment for young men from the ages of 12-19. Through milieu therapy, we promote a community-based, systematic approach that focuses on positive behavior interactions, interventions and supports within the parameters of a safe, secure and structured milieu environment. Within our milieu environment, our goal is to build self-esteem, teach individual accountability as well as appropriate coping, social and problem-solving skills so that our youth gain the tools necessary to interact appropriately with others in various social settings. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), our clinicians take a goal-oriented approach at turning previously held maladaptive and distorted thoughts, undesirable feelings and responses, and inappropriate behaviors into those that are more befitting allowing our youth to successfully execute their environment now and in their future endeavors. Mission Statement "Our mission is to provide exemplary mental health treatment programs designed for adolescent males and their families delivered in a safe, dignified and supportive environment consistent with what we would desire for our own families. In pursuing this mission, our goal is to create a progressive, high quality, fiscally responsible system for our residents and their families, our referral sources and employees."
