Services

At Embracing Arms, we reach girls at a critical time in their lives. We work with our girls and their families to develop strong and positive behavioral plans to achieve their goals. Of course we meet the medical, nutritional, education and psychosocial needs of our residents, but we also offer services to help them stay on the path toward positive results. The following services are some examples:
