Welcome to DYC

DYC has been the specialist in adolescent and young adult drug dependency since 1970, giving young people a program that is tailored to their needs and relevant to the moment. In this environment, our members become active participants in achieving success.

now celebrating 50 years of saving lives

To acknowledge, honor, and celebrate our fifty years of helping young people and their families, we will be having an ALL OUT #50YearsOfSavingLives campaign. Through social media, past and present families of our program, alumni from all fifty years, as well as many other various outreach efforts, our goal for the #50YearsOfSavingLives campaign is to raise funds, bring awareness to the ongoing drug epidemic, shine light on “TREATMENT WORKS”, and bring together our ever-growing DYC family and supporters to celebrate this accomplishment. The campaign will conclude with a gala at the TWA Hotel on April 6, 2022.

Our Mission

At DYC, we work to help dependent adolescents and young adults create positive change in their lives through a comprehensive system of care. We present an evidence-based program model that brings about transformational successes through commitment, motivation and compassion in a participatory, safe, family environment.

DYC Brooklyn

Our DYC Brooklyn Center offers an outpatient program, serving 75 members and their families, in addition to housing for 16 resident-members.

DYC Upstate

Our DYC Residential Facility in Fallsburg, New York serves 86 members and their families.

“We see every young person entering our rehabilitation program as an individual who needs to be embraced, understood, motivated and armed with life skills for tomorrow. The transformation is limitless from once a commitment is made and the participant is willing to join the process as a teammate and family member.”
