Helping girls with trauma backgrounds heal and thrive.
Adolescence is a critical time of emotional, social, and academic development — and for many girls who have experienced trauma, it can also be a time of profound vulnerability.
Research shows that girls are significantly more likely than boys to struggle with the emotional and behavioral impacts of trauma.
Without the right support, these challenges can interfere with learning, relationships, and long-term well-being.
Intervening during the middle school years offers one of the most powerful opportunities to shift a young person’s trajectory.
Some girls need more than outpatient care or school-based services — some will need a nurturing, structured residential environment to help them stabilize, reconnect, and grow.
EverGreen Meadow Services currently provides prevention and intervention programs that support girls and their families across New York State.
The Academy is now being built to meet the needs of girls who require a higher level of care—offering them a therapeutic boarding school environment designed to support both healing and learning.
