Help Is Closer Than You Think.
If something feels off with your teen, you’re in the right place.
Connection Opens the Door. Clinical Care Does the Work.
At TAFS, teens grow through peer connection, adventure learning, and structured activities that bring young people together through shared experiences, challenge, and yes — fun. These experiences help teens feel included, capable, and connected to their recovery.
Healing begins with engagement and trust. Through clinical care and real-life experience, teens build skills, confidence, and stronger relationships. Parents and caregivers are part of the process too — through support groups, shared learning, and relationship-building of their own.
Measured Outcomes. Meaningful Change.
As teens build trust and confidence, families strengthen their ability to support growth, connection, and lasting change. The TAFS Model works. We track progress consistently and measure outcomes across programs, supported by research partnerships with University of Texas Health Science Center and Baylor College of Medicine.

Building Stability to Launch into Adulthood.
Since 2002, TAFS has delivered a unique recovery model designed for teens – strengthening how they function
within their relationships, daily lives, and environments.
We focus on emotional regulation, addressing substance use, peer relationships, family stability, accountability, and identity development. Teens stabilize and build the capacity to move forward with confidence.
Recovery expands what is possible in their lives.

Across each setting, TAFS brings the same core commitment: clinically grounded care, strong relationships,
and meaningful engagement that help young people stay involved in recovery. The model remains consistent.
The delivery reflects the needs of each community.

That Feeling in Your Gut?
It's Trying to Tell You Something.
It can be hard to know if you’re overreacting – or not reacting soon enough. Most parents can tell when something has shifted.
This May Be a Good Fit If Your Teen Is
- Using or abusing substances
- Struggling with anxiety, depression, or mood instability
- Exhibiting behavioral challenges at home or school
- Withdrawing from family or once-loved hobbies
- Declining academically
- Spending time with new and concerning friends – or isolating more
