Situated in Canon City, Colorado, just 3.6 miles from the city center in Fremont County, the facility is in a car-dependent area where almost all daily activities need transportation. The community is operated by Abraxas Youth & Family Services, a non-profit organization established in 1973. Since its founding, Abraxas has built a diversified service network reaching over 5,000 youth, adults, and families annually via alternative education programs, outpatient counseling, in-home services, shelter and detention services, residential treatment, and re-entry/transition support. Such a history of specialized youth and family support forms the center’s therapeutic approach.

At its core, Southern Peaks Regional Treatment Center operates a thorough treatment model built around individual, group, and family therapy sessions paired with specialized support in social skills training, psychological and psychiatric care, and medication management when needed. The facility’s wellness program highlights personal growth, practical life competencies’ development, and a path toward each resident’s successful transition back to community living as a responsible, productive society member. The facility holds a state license as a Psychiatric Residential Treatment Facility and has dual certifications as a Therapeutic Designation facility and a Certified PREA (Prison Rape Elimination Act) facility. It’s also accredited by the Joint Commission, the nation’s biggest independent health care accreditation body.
