About the Campus
Crestwood San Luis Obispo's new Enhanced Short-Term Residential Therapeutic Program (E-STRTP) will provide specialized, intensive behavioral health services and 24-hour support for youth experiencing a mental health crisis. This four-bed program will primarily serve foster youth ages 12-17 who need a highly structured therapeutic setting but do not meet the criteria for psychiatric hospitalization.
Through individualized assessment, stabilization, and treatment, the program will help youth strengthen coping skills, improve emotional and behavioral regulation, and safely transition to a lower level of care. As part of San Luis Obispo County's children's continuum of care, the E-STRTP will help bridge an important service gap between hospitalization and home- or community-based care.
