Shoreline Inc

Shoreline Inc specializes exclusively in residential treatment for adolescents ages 13-17, providing intensive addiction treatment in a structured residential setting. The facility operates gender-separated programs that allow teens to focus on recovery alongside peers facing similar challenges while addressing the unique developmental needs of adolescents.

The residential program addresses substance use disorders alongside co-occurring conditions including depression, anxiety, and trauma-related issues. This comprehensive approach recognizes that adolescent addiction often involves complex mental health factors requiring specialized treatment approaches different from adult recovery programs.

The treatment philosophy at Shoreline combines the proven structure of 12-step recovery with their specialized Encouragement Model. This dual approach provides adolescents with traditional recovery foundations while incorporating supportive techniques designed to build confidence and motivation during early recovery.

Clinical programming focuses on helping teens develop healthy coping mechanisms, address underlying trauma, and build skills for long-term recovery success. The 24-hour residential environment allows for continuous therapeutic support and peer interaction essential for adolescent recovery development.

Shoreline's clinical team includes licensed professionals specifically trained in adolescent addiction treatment. Clinical Director Scott Kelly, LCDC, leads a team of licensed counselors including LCDCs and LCDC-1 level professionals who understand the unique challenges facing teens in recovery.

The facility maintains comprehensive staffing including Director of Nursing Sherri L. Watson, RN, and Child Care Administrator Deborah Jenkins, LBSW, LCCA. This multidisciplinary approach ensures teens receive both clinical addiction treatment and appropriate developmental support throughout their residential stay.

Located in Taft, Texas, Shoreline has served families throughout San Patricio County for over three decades. The facility's long-standing presence in the community reflects their commitment to providing consistent, affordable adolescent addiction treatment for local families.

CEO Mark M Jackson, LMSW, leads an organization focused on creating lasting recovery outcomes for young people. The combination of experienced leadership, specialized programming, and affordable treatment options makes Shoreline a trusted resource for families seeking residential care for adolescent substance use disorders.
