Dear Friends, We believe that every child in North Carolina who needs mental health treatment should receive high quality services without stigma or barriers to care. Your support is the greatest endorsement in this belief. Thanks to you, Alexander Youth Network helped move 8,250 children from surviving towards thriving in 2017. The majority of the children in our care have experienced trauma. They exhibit disruptive behaviors, aggression and a multitude of other problems as a result. They may lack meaningful relationships and struggle to relate to peers and authority figures in order to shield themselves from further suffering. They are often called ‘bad’ kids,sent home from school, suspended, expelled or generally cast aside as hopeless cases.
Our Mission Alexander Youth Network provides quality professional treatment to children with serious emotional and behavioral problems. We deliver an effective and efficient array of services, enabling children and their families to exercise self-determination, achieve their potential, and become positive contributors to society.

But you are their voice. In this report, you will read about three of our children who are either currently enrolled in or have completed successful treatment. One gift means so much, and because of your generosity we have so many stories to share. Stories of doors opened, friendships made and lives changed. Thank you for believing in the children and families of Alexander. With gratitude,

Meet the Kids You Are Helping When Benjamin first arrived at Alexander he would hug everyone he saw and tell them he loved them. A nine-year-old boy with a huge smile and bright eyes, he artfully maintained his façade of happiness each day. But underneath was a very troubled child with a dark and traumatic past. What the therapists and counselors in Alexander’s Psychiatric Residential Treatment Facility (PRTF) soon came to learn was that Benjamin’s older brother had been abusing him sexually since he was four. Benjamin’s mother did not believe him when he finally confided in her about the abuse. It wasn’t until the abuse escalated and required serious medical attention that the truth was exposed.
Benjamin
As a result of his early childhood trauma, Benjamin required ongoing care and supervision by a team of trained professionals at Alexander. He soon learned to better express and articulate his feelings of fear, anxiety and helplessness. He made friends, created strong bonds and learned how to trust again. After six months in residential treatment, Benjamin was able to take a step down into Alexander’s Day Treatment program and soon returned to school. His foster mom reports that his favorite thing to do is read, and that his smile still lights up a room. Alexander served more than 108 children through our Psychiatric Residential Treatment program in 2017. Your contributions help bridge the gap between in services not covered by Medicaid and private insurance.
Finley was eight years old when her parents began noticing the changes in her behavior. She stopped playing with friends and siblings. She wasn’t interested in her favorite activities. She would go hours in school without looking up or making eye contact with her teachers and peers. She wanted to be invisible.
Finley
Scared and confused, Finley’s parents brought her to a counselor who diagnosed her with Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD). When continued trips to the counselor appeared to make no difference in Finley’s mood and behavior, she recommended that her parents seek the help of Alexander. Finley was in Alexander’s Day Treatment program for three months. During that time, she learned how to cope with her diagnosis and how to self-soothe and self-regulate. She was able to stay in her home during treatment and return to school the next fall where she is back to running and playing with her friends and classmates. This year, Alexander Day Treatment served more than 374 children.Contributions like yours enable us to serve children in desperate need of mental health care. With your help, more than 65% of the children who received care in 2017 were able to move down to a less restrictive living environment.
At twelve years old, Jared left his 24th foster care placement and arrived at Alexander Youth Network’s Psychiatric Residential Treatment Facility (PRTF). Not a lot was known about Jared’s trauma history, though therapists were informed by the Department of Social Services (DSS) that Jared’s mother died of a drug overdose when he was an infant and that his father was incarcerated. His other potential guardians (aunts, uncle and grandmother) declined to take him in.
Jared
Upon his arrival, Jared immediately demonstrated extreme aggression toward peers and authority figures. This included hitting, biting and vulgar language. He was diagnosed with PostTraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) and depression. During his time in residential treatment, Jared learned skills to help him manage his big emotions. He was able to move to Alexander’s Therapeutic Foster Care (TFC) program, which provides homes for children and adolescents who need treatment for mental health problems, trauma-based behaviors, or severe emotional disturbances. Our Therapeutic Foster Care coaches continue to work with Jared and his foster family on a regular basis, providing access to continued care without Jared having to leave the relationships and trust he built with our professionals. When asked what he likes best about TFC, Jared will tell you that he loves “having a family and homemade cookies whenever I want one”. Many of the children we serve at Alexander Youth Network have never had enough. Not enough food, shelter, love and safety. In 2017, you helped to place more than 275 children in Therapeutic Foster Care so that they could heal and learn how to trust again.
