Maples Adolescent Treatment Centre
Job SummaryThe Maples Adolescent Treatment Centre is a program of Provincial Services Division of the Ministry of Children and Family Development. Maples is a designated provincial mental health facility providing onsite, community, outreach, and ancillary services to collaboratively support youth, families, and communities. The Maples Adolescent Treatment Centre works with children and youth in British Columbia with enduring and severe mental health and behavioural difficulties, as well as youth found Not Criminally Responsible by Reason of a Mental Disorder (NCRMD) or unfit to stand trial. Additional services include community consultation service, training/capacity building opportunities and ongoing sharing of current literature. Through a multidisciplinary approach, our objective is to collaboratively enhance the capacity of communities to plan and care for challenging youth through a closer to home focus. Onsite programs provide a period of clinical evaluation, stabilization, intervention, and followup in a structured setting as well as support for families/caregivers and the development of a plan of care. Program areas operate with a multidisciplinary team of social workers, psychiatrists, psychologists, nurses, and childcare counsellors. Community programs are similarly configured but delivered within the home community. The constellation of services offered include medical/psychiatric evaluation; multidisciplinary assessment and plans of care; family therapy, education, and support; educational opportunities through Burnaby School District; vocational, recreational, and social interactive experiences; ongoing outreach and respite services; ongoing program evaluation.

The Maples Adolescent Treatment Centre has developed Satellite Locations in two additional communities outside of the lower mainland.

These Satellite locations deliver short term mental health programming for children and youth with enduring and severe mental health and substance use concerns.

These satellite locations are an extension of the Maples, offering on-site and community-based Maples services.
