Nightwind Treatment Centre (NWTC) serves youth ages 12 to 22. We offer a number of trauma-informed programs to support youth who are experiencing challenges. Through daily living, recreational activities and individual and group counselling, we believe that each youth can acquire the skills necessary to move on and be able achieve to their potential. We work with each individual youth, their caseworker and their family (when appropriate) to develop a plan which will aid them in achieving their individual goals and planning for their future.

All Nightwind Treatment Centre Programs are accredited by the Canadian Accreditation Council and we are proud to be dual licensed as a Residential Facility under the Child, Youth and Family Enhancement Act, and a Residential Addiction Treatment Service under the Mental Health Services Protection Act.

Nightwind Treatment Centre has a contract for service with Child Family Services, North Region. Caseworkers from other Child and Family Services should contact their placement specialist.
