criteria of its therapeutic community tradition and contemporary treatment concepts. DAYTOP, NEW

PHILOSOPHY
Treatment at DAYTOP, NEW JERSEY is based on the premise of self-help in an atmosphere
of positive peer interaction. Drug and alcohol abuse is not necessarily seen as the primary problem
but more as symptomatic of unresolved conflicts or problems. The adolescent is assisted in identifying
these deeper conflicts and taught ways to resolve conflict and express the accompanying feelings in an
appropriate and healthy manner. Antisocial behavior and substance abuse are addressed as inappropriate,
unhealthy and irresponsible. The adolescent's family is viewed as an integral part of the treatment
program. Twelve Step Programs are one of the treatment modalities incorporated into the overall program.
