About the Facility

Youth180, formerly Dallas Challenge, has a 35-year history of providing quality prevention, intervention and treatment programs. We approach the struggles of our youth and families from a holistic, trauma-focused perspective. Our team recognizes the intersection of substance use with family dynamics, mental health, homelessness, victims of abuse and trafficking, and many other life experiences. We believe substance use, along with behavioral and mental health issues, are not choices, but rather underlying responses to a larger underlying concern: TRAUMA. Trauma affects individuals from all walks of life. Its effects vary from person to person and can have lasting generational impact. The good news is that trauma is very treatable! OUR PROGRAMS: PREVENTION: Our Certified Prevention Specialists provide free prevention curriculum at our North Oak Cliff Center as well as in local schools, recreation centers, housing authorities and other agencies. Our Prevention Program educates youth and parents on coping, decision-making, and problem-solving skills as well as the risks associated with substance use. INTERVENTION AND EDUCATION: Youth180 recognizes the struggles faced by many youth and their families. Through our Intervention and Education Program, we are committed to supporting the whole family as they work to address any dynamics in their home. We accomplish this by educating youth and their parent(s) on how to conquer conflict, address behavioral issues and truancy, communicate effectively and set goals. Classes are available in multiple locations every month. COUNSELING & OUTPATIENT TREATMENT Youth180 provides an evidence-based, integrative approach to trauma-centered counseling and outpatient substance use treatment. Our program is specialized to fit the needs and strengths of all by providing the foundation for processing and healing from trauma. Together, we strive to promote resiliency for youth and their families, empowering them on the path to a healthy and productive life. Please call 214.942.5166 for more information.

The programs at Youth 180 address common issues like the need to build resilience for life’s challenges, shoplifting and other theft, drug use requiring treatment, anger and conflict, skipping school, DUI, alcohol and substance possession. They provide chemical assessments, drug testing, outpatient drug treatment, family support, referrals, and a post-treatment recovery support program.

Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

car-building iconOutpatient

Clients are typically admitted to outpatient rehab once they have completed intensive inpatient care. Some clients who are exiting inpatient detox may also choose to transition directly into outpatient care. High-intensity outpatient programming, including partial hospitalization (PHP) and intensive outpatient (IOP) is widely available for clients in early recovery, those leaving detox, and those at an elevated relapse risk. Clients in outpatient care generally engage in robust addiction counseling and recovery education. Those in opioid and/or alcohol recovery may also receive medication assisted treatment (MAT).

house-medical iconIntensive Outpatient

Intensive outpatient programs offer high-level care for clients as an increased risk of relapse, including those in early recovery, those with a strong history of relapse, and those experiencing a crisis. Intensive outpatient treatment typically requires clients to engage in nine to 20 hours of care weekly, with treatment modalities that combine psychotherapy and recovery education, and holistic therapies, such as acupuncture and animal therapy. Medication assisted treatment (MAT) is also common in alcohol and/or opioid recovery.

book-medical icon12-Step

12 step programs promote participants’ sustained sobriety through rigorous and ongoing peer coaching and personal spiritual growth. Participants routinely attend 12 step meetings, which are available multiple times per day, 365 days per year in most communities. This ensures that those in recovery have prompt access to the structure and support they need when they need it. These programs use spiritual precepts to address the root causes of addiction and encourage compassion, self-awareness, forgiveness, accountability, and acceptance.

house-medical iconAftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

Family Therapy

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

Group Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

Individual Therapy

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Motivational Interviewing

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a clinical approach to helping people with substance abuse issues and other conditions shift behavior in positive ways. It is more goal-oriented than traditional psychotherapy, as MI counselors directly attempt to get clients to consider making behavioral change (rather than wait for them to come to conclusions themselves). Its primary purpose is to resolve ambivalence and help clients become able to make healthy choices freely.

Rational Behavior Therapy

Rational Behavior Therapy (RBT) is a form of cognitive behavioral therapy meant to be short-term and comprehensive. It was intended to help clients become more self-sufficent and move forward without the need for expensive, ongoing therapy. It includes an emotional self-help method called “rational self-counseling,” the purpose of which is to give clients all the skills needed to handle future emotional issues by themselves, or with significantly less professional help.

Trauma Therapy

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.
