At HAID RTC, we use a Multidisciplinary Team (MDT) approach to ensure every youth receives holistic, coordinated care that supports emotional healing, behavioral growth, and long-term success. Our team brings together diverse expertise to develop and monitor individualized treatment and transition plans. 

 The MDT meets regularly to review progress, adjust treatment plans, and ensure that all services remain responsive to the youth’s evolving needs. Youth voice and participation are encouraged, with plans developed around their strengths, preferences, and goals.
