Family reunification is an important cornerstone at Steinway. At the main clinic, they work with families to help them understand the issues of the emotionally disturbed child and help them cope with their problems for daily living. The ultimate goal: to reunite children with their families before the children become teenagers. Age 13 is the cutoff point for residents. By that age, if reunification with teh family is impossible, then the option of placing the teen in an adolescent group home or into foster care are considered.
