STARS PROGRAM

Youth Overcoming Drug Abuse (YODA)

Youth Overcoming Drug Abuse (YODA) is an intensive outpatient program of STARS for adolescents with substance use disorder and co-occurring disorders.

We believe people can recover. We do not give up.

Gender-Specific Intensive Outpatient Treatment Programs

Services are free to youth ages 13 to 18 who are Tennessee residents and are uninsured or have insurance that will not pay for treatment. The length of the program is based on individual needs. Our model is person-centered and utilizes evidence-based therapeutic models that are responsive to the particular needs of young females and males.
