After-School Intensive Outpatient Program in Golden, CO

When your child needs more than traditional therapy, an intensive outpatient program can be a helpful step for their mental wellbeing. Decade2Connect offers a supportive, family-inclusive child IOP in Denver, Colorado.

Healing is holistic.

We developed this After-School Intensive Outpatient Program based on 65+ years of experience helping Colorado children, adolescents, and their families. Healing involves the whole family for true success. That’s why our IOP focuses on the family system.
