  The D.O.V.E.S Program (Developing Opportunities and Values through Education and Substance Abuse Treatment) opened in July 2000.  
  The D.O.V.E.S. Program is a residential substance abuse program specifically designed for up to 12 females from ages 13 to 18. The length of stay in the program is generally 6 to 12 months.  
  The program provides comprehensive individualized care through a treatment team approach that addresses substance abuse and subsequent issues that arise as a result of addiction.  
  The residents receive a full academic curriculum, vocational training, and recreation opportunities in addition to treatment specifically designed for juveniles with substance abuse issues. The Commission utilizes gender specific programming that is designed to meet the unique needs of the female residents.  
 

All of the Commission's facilities serving female juveniles are located on the Johnstone Campus in Bordentown. This central location allows for a continuum of gender specific services to be shared. While space is currently shared with the Valentine RCH, the unique populations receive separate clinical services. D.O.V.E.S. and Valentine programs are located next door to the Commission's secure institution for juvenile female offenders, the Juvenile Female Secure Care and Intake Facility.
