Ebensburg, Pennsylvania

Our Campus

A peaceful 12-acre campus in the heart of Cambria County, just minutes off Route 219 and Route 22, designed to support quiet, focused healing and room to grow, play, and thrive.

Room to heal. Room to grow.

Our grounds are more than buildings. Set on 12 quiet acres, the AYS campus pairs modern classrooms, therapeutic environment, and comfortable living quarters with wide-open recreational areas where youth can play, build confidence, and simply be kids in a community-based setting.

Every corner of campus is structured to support milestone progression — a calm, secure environment where young people can focus on healing while staying active and engaged.
