The Volunteers of America Residential Treatment Program offers a "Christian based" community treatment program to adult males and females who are currently under supervision with the Ohio Adult Parole Authority or the Department of Youth Services. Group training and one on one counseling is provided.
Treatment planning is under the supervision of a Clinical Director, and all residents are assigned a case manager who provides intensive case management services. All treatment programs are phase structured where movement through the phases is based on successful completion of the requirements of each phase.

Volunteers of America is one of only two facilities in the State of Ohio to be a nationally accredited facility by the American Correctional Association.
