Calo Programs

Calo Programs Calo (“kay-lo”) Programs is a specialized residential treatment program.

Calo is a residential treatment center and therapeutic boarding school uniquely focused and specially equipped to treat students and families impacted by traumatic experiences which occurred in the developmental period, such as adoption, chronic stress, and inconsistent care from caregivers. These adolescents struggle to be in healthy relationship with family and peers, experience emotional dysregulation, and often fail to maintain safe behavior in school or at home. With a foundational focus on safety and creating repetitive experiences of co-regulation through relationship, our students begin the journey towards developing a healthy sense of self. This enables them to engage with the resources and relationships that they have previously rejected. The best way to heal developmental trauma is to provide healthy, repetitive, relational therapeutic experiences in a context of relationships that are consistently safe, empathetic and attuned. Calo implements a unique and truly relational treatment model using evidence-based attachment treatment research and the science of neurobiology. We believe, and research supports, that this approach coupled with intense family work is the most significant and powerful agent of change. Our proprietary treatment approach is pervasive throughout the program and ultimately leads to co-regulation and joy.

More Than Just Neighbors: Growing Together with Calo Programs 🤝

A community’s heart is measured by how we show up for one another. That is why our bond with Calo Programs is so vital to Osage Beach.

Through the "Calo Cares" initiative, these incredible students do so much more than volunteer at City Hall. They pour their energy into making our entire city shine, from supporting major local events to working behind the scenes on service projects that benefit all our residents. Their presence is a constant reminder that we are all growing together.

To the students and staff at Calo: Thank you for your heart for service and for being such an essential part of the Osage Beach family.

When we invest in our youth and welcome them into our community, we aren't just building a better city; we’re building a brighter future for us all. 💙
