Link to Peer Reviewed Paper: Involuntary Youth Transport (IYT) to Treatment Programs: Best Practices, Research, Ethics, and Future Directions

“This article examines the risks and benefits of Involuntary Youth Transport to Treatment or Therapeutic Boarding Schools and similar programs. Especially the longterm effects on the client, in order to ensure that all facets of a client’s treatment are trauma-informed and guided by research-based practices and ethical principles. Practices that re-traumatize youth need to be replaced with informed practices that facilitate positive outcomes. This article utilizes an ethical decision-making framework developed for behavioral health professionals to assess and improve the ethical use of IYT. Based on this ethical framework, a more effective and collaborative model is presented that results in less restrictive approaches, greater levels of willingness by the adolescent to enter treatment, and trauma-informed management of difficult emotional or physical behaviors. This model also guides professionals and caregivers on how to proceed when IYT services are deemed necessary. The article presents past research and addresses ethical guidelines and best practices for IYT. Steps for practitioners and future directions are discussed.”

Through her organization and its resource hub, HelpYourTeens.com, Scheff and her team of family consultants offer parents objective guidance, firsthand experience, and a trusted voice at the moment they need it most — the point many families describe as their wit's end.
