The Basics

Located about about an hour from Minneapolis, Maple Lake Recovery Center in Maple Lake, Minnesota, was established in 1997. The facility offers residential substance abuse and co-occurring disorder treatment for adolescent boys aged 13 to 18. This facility provides evidence-based treatment methods including CBT and an introduction to the 12-steps in a highly structured and safe atmosphere.

Accommodations and Food

The boys residential facility is located in a family-friendly, tree lined neighborhood that is quiet and safe. The two-story house that can accommodate up to 16 clients within the spacious residence. The clients share bedrooms and bathrooms, and have regular responsibility of rotating chores daily. The home has large living rooms with several comfy couches and chairs and a television. Other shared spaces in the facility include classrooms, counseling offices, a dining room and kitchen. There are three meals a day prepared on-site by the kitchen staff, as well as snacks.

Treatment and Staff

Maple Lake Recovery Center offers evidence-based therapy methods rooted in the 12-step philosophy. There are daily group sessions and one individual session per week as well at on-site AA meetings. The clients also participate in experiential therapy and have written assignments regularly.

There is an emphasis on relapse prevention and coping skills, as well a focus on setting specific goals. Meeting goals allows for more freedom and flexibility in the program. Regular psychoeducation classes and lectures, establishing camaraderie amongst the clients and communication skills are key elements in the program, and parent participation is required during each clients stay.

Medication management services are provided along with regular visits and follow-ups with a staff psychiatrist. The staff at MLRC includes LADCs, physicians, LPNs, psychiatrists, house managers and residential staff.

In Summary

No parent thinks their son is going to end up in rehab in their early teens. The programs at Maple Lake are very structured, which to some may seem a little strict, but the intent is to give the clients purpose and focus, and in many cases the programs are successful for that very reason. This is an excellent choice for boys and their families who are looking for help with substance abuse and co-occurring disorders.
