Compassionate Youth Residential Care
Preferred Residential Homes provides a safe, supportive, and structured environment for youth in need of stability, emotional support, and behavioral health guidance. Founded on the belief that every young person deserves a genuine home where they feel safe, seen, and supported — not just placed.
Under the leadership of Dr. Odilia S. Kwateng — a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 19 years of healthcare and behavioral health experience — our home was established to fill a critical gap in the community: quality, structured, trauma-informed residential care that treats every child as an individual, not a case number.
We are licensed by the Arizona Department of Health Services as a Behavioral Health Residential Facility, and we take that responsibility seriously. Every decision we make, every policy we follow, and every person we hire is guided by one question: "Is this in the best interest of the child?"
A Community Where Every Child Has the Opportunity to Thrive
We envision a future where no child falls through the cracks — where every young person who comes through our doors leaves with greater confidence, stronger skills, and a clear path forward.
Our vision is to be the residential care provider that families, caseworkers, and communities trust completely — known for excellence, compassion, and outcomes that last.
