Overview
Project Patch exists to help struggling teens find hope, skills, and support to live abundant and successful lives.
We are a licensed and accredited therapeutic residential treatment program for boys and girls ages 12-17.
All major insurance, including Tricare and some Medicaid plans accepted.
Original Gangster's Basic Academy of Delinquency is a non-profit youth services agency.
Our mission is to provide targeted youth who are prone to gang involvement with alternatives to a gang lifestyle.
We fulfill this mission through an education program, job skills training and supervised recreational activities for high risk youth.
Our strategies are consistent with the three-pronged, balanced approach of the Idaho State Department of Juvenile Corrections.
The balanced approach emphasizes skill-building, accountability and protection of society.
The strength of our program, now in its sixth year of operations, is in providing skill-building activities while holding youth accountable for continuing their education and contributing back to the community.
