and Firesetting: Jane Addams Treatment Center
Ben Stich, Program Director, 781-648-6200x300
Our Jane Addams treatment program is designed to serve girls
who have  histories

individual, group, and family therapies using a relational
approach. The treatment is based on the development of emotion
regulation skills, healthy relationships and boundaries, and
the development of a healthy identity.
The program is housed in a state-of-the-art facility, which
was constructed in 1994 and won a national award for outstanding
design and functionality in a health care facility. The specialization
for fire setters received The Massachusetts Coalition of Juvenile
Firesetter Intervention Programs’ annual Clinical Community
Service Award in 2004.
