The John H. Sununu Youth Services Center (SYSC) is a 24-hour secure treatment facility that offers intensive treatment for New Hampshire’s detained and committed youth, both male and female, ages 13 to 17. The program encompasses education, residential unit life, permanency planning, as well as clinical treatment services. The goal at SYSC is to provide youth with ongoing assessment of their needs and strengths, as well as comprehensive mental health treatment. Treatment focuses on stabilization, mitigation of risk, and preparing youth for a successful return to the community, with reunification as a primary goal.

Community based services include youth tracking services, in-home counseling, traditional counseling, transportation and the Juvenile Offender Locator Team (JOLT).
