I am a public sector psychiatrist who has been charged identifying or developing a treatment program in our state for firesetting youth. Does anyone have or know of such a program? Thanks in advance. Dr.P

DrDAPA - Wondered if you were aware of the Abraxas Youth Center Secure Residential Firesetter Treatment Unit (http://www.cayc1.com/firesetter.html. I think it is overseen by the Pennsylvania Department of Public Welfare (DPW) with referrals via the Pennsylvania Juvenile Justice System. Best. RAF
