Seven Challenges is the counseling component of an outpatient program and can be delivered in a variety of settings for youth and young adults ages 12 -25 who are diagnosed with a substance use and/or co-occurring disorder (substance use and mental health disorder). Settings may include a school or home, community health site, outpatient service, as well as a group home.

The Seven Challenges program is currently being implemented at Tides Family Services (401) 822-1360 as well as Family Service of Rhode Island (401) 519-2280.
