Kids Escaping Drugs supports the Renaissance Campus, a long term residental treatment facility for teens with drug and/or alcohol addition.
Today the Renaissance Campus had expanded to a 62 bed treatment program offering a continuum of care for chemically dependent adolescent ages 12-21.
The facilities offer a safe and supportive environment where adolescents can recover, learn responsibility and re-enter the community with the tools to live a drug-free lifestyle. Renaissance Campus is growing and so are adolescent drug and alcohol problems.
In addition to supporting the campus, the Kids Escaping Drugs Campaign has been offering prevention and outreach to the WNY community since 1996 through various programs? Face to Face, Vocational Outreach Program and Art Therapy.
