Our youth rehab service supports young people aged 18 and over who need structured help for alcohol and drug use. Treatment is delivered in a clinically supervised setting, with tailored programs that consider age, development, family context, and safety. We provide assessment, detox support where required, and ongoing rehabilitation designed to stabilise health, build skills, and support long-term change.
In Australia, substance use often starts in the teen years and can escalate quickly without support. AIHW reports the average age of young children and adults (14–24) who first try alcohol is 16.1 years (2022–23), and the average age of first trying any illicit drug is 19.5 years.
Early, youth-focused rehab can interrupt patterns sooner—especially when alcohol and drug use are linked with psychological and school, work, or family stress.

Our rehab services support young people aged 18 and over who need help with alcohol and other drug use, mental health concerns, or related wellbeing issues. Eligibility is confirmed through a clinical assessment.
Services may include assessment, detox support, residential rehabilitation, mental health care, and referral to community alcohol and drug services, depending on individual needs and age.
Family involvement is encouraged where appropriate. Support may include family meetings, education, and planning to help improve communication and ongoing support after rehabilitation.
Where clinically necessary, hospital detoxification is provided under medical supervision. Not all young people need withdrawal support, and this is determined during assessment.
In Australia, those under 18 typically require the consent of a parent or guardian, and the type of program must be clinically suitable. At Hader Clinic, we can only offer residential rehab for individuals 18+. Where residential rehab isn’t appropriate, we can help families find alternative support.
