Cinnamon Hills can help you. We provide a safe and healthy environment. Our staff of 195 full-time professionals serve, treat, and educate 132 students. The staff is made up of doctors, nurses, therapists, educators, child-care staff, administrators, and support staff. Our team creates an environment that builds youth through:

Academics
Upon admission students receive the Woodstock/Johnson assessment. With these test results certified teachers prepare a Student Education Plan designed to improve academic deficiencies. Students can also complete the requirements for a G.E.D. High School Diploma equivalency.

Program Structure
Cinnamon Hills utilizes "Eyeball Supervision," meaning that the youth are under direct observation by staff at all times. Staff supervise all activities to ensure that youths' behavior is under control and that the environment is safe for students and staff.



Vocational/Life Skills
The vocational program helps students gain skills to prepare for the future. Students are taught specific skills to give them the experience necessary to lead a productive life. The vocational program will help them develop a feeling of personal self worth and achievement as they participate in vocational training.



Documentation and Reporting
Cinnamon Hills follows Utah State Licensing and Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) standards of documentation, following all guidelines and confidentiality requirements. Comprehensive reports are sent to all parties involved in the treatment process.


Recreation
Youth enjoy recreational activities as well as daily aerobics and calisthenics, according to their physical capabilities. Recreational activities include swimming, bowling, movies, board and video games, basketball, etc.

Therapy
Youth are involved in individual, group, and family telephone therapy each week. The therapist will address the issues the youth has been experiencing personally and within his or her family and community, help the youth build strength and confidence in areas of weakness, and to prepare the youth for family reunification.

Group Living
The living environment is structured to be safe from self-harm and harm from other students. Cinnamon Hills utilizes "Eyeball Supervision" meaning that the youth are under the direct observation by staff at all times. Yet Cinnamon Hills staff are supportive and are sensitive to the problems of individual youth.
