Wasatch Behavioral Health - Vantage Point

Wasatch Behavioral Health’s Vantage Point in Provo, Utah, is a vital crisis intervention and emergency shelter facility dedicated to supporting youth ages 12 to 17—under special conditions, even 10- and 11-year-olds—who are facing significant challenges such as homelessness, family conflict, or behavioral crises. As one of Utah's oldest and most trusted community mental health organizations, Wasatch Behavioral Health is committed to offering accessible, no-cost care to youth in distress, with a focus on safety, stabilization, and long-term family reunification or redirection.

Open 24/7, including holidays, Vantage Point provides emergency shelter, food, clothing, showers, and emotional support in a secure, supervised environment. Youth have access to therapeutic services including individual and group therapy, anger management classes, and life-skills development. Parents and guardians are also supported through parenting classes and case management services that work to resolve conflicts and avoid escalation into juvenile justice or child welfare systems. The program’s strengths-based approach helps teens build perspective, understand consequences, and make more effective decisions during times of crisis. With dedicated professionals always on site, Vantage Point stands as a crucial community resource for families in need of immediate intervention.
