At AIS, it is our mission to offer the adolescent the opportunity with a fresh start that is based on Respect, Dignity, Relationship, and Resolve. Many treatment centers and parents believe that the first step in the treatment process begins with the initial engagement of the transport service. It is our job to initiate an environment of trust and mutual respect that offers your child hope that he can resolve whatever issues afforded him the opportunity for AIS to step into his or her life at that precise moment. Through this brief, though critical initial phase in your childs process of self descovery he will be afforded a lifeline of mutual trust and respect, based on his behavior and commitment to change.

Our goal is to identify with your son or daughter his motivation, inner-strength, and to enlighten him on his opportunities as they exist in the moment of "critical exchange." Anger at this moment is accepted, and not the exception. We enjoy the experience of helpng your child become enlighten during this critical moment through our training in crisis intervention, positive verbal exchange, treating your child with dignity and respect, and with the belief that physical interaction is the absolute exception, unless the child puts himself at risk to harm himself or someone else.
