YOUTH VILLAGES AT INNER HARBOUR

Youth Villages at Inner Harbour is a Title I public school that is part of the Douglas County school district, located in Douglasville, GA with about 58 students offering grade levels from 2nd Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 16 teachers, Youth Villages at Inner Harbour has a student/teacher ratio of about 3:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Youth Villages at Inner Harbour is a specialized therapeutic residential treatment campus located in Douglasville, Georgia. It is designed to serve children and adolescents, typically ranging from ages 6 to 18, who are struggling with severe emotional and behavioral challenges. The facility provides a highly structured environment that combines intensive clinical therapy with a focus on stabilizing young people who have experienced trauma, abuse, or neglect, or who have been unsuccessful in traditional home or school settings.

Beyond its therapeutic residential program, the campus operates an accredited on-site school designed to meet the unique academic needs of its students. The educational approach is highly individualized, often featuring smaller class sizes and specialized instruction to help students overcome learning barriers and maintain academic progress while they focus on their emotional well-being. Ultimately, the goal of Inner Harbour is to equip these youth with the coping skills, emotional regulation techniques, and academic foundations necessary to successfully transition back into their homes, schools, and communities.
