Based in Marion, Clear Sky Behavioral is a new venture seeking to provide a positive influence for teen-age boys who need structure and guidance in their lives.

Scott and Melissa Price are now the operators of Clear Sky Behavioral, LLC which offers a residential treatment facility for teen-age boys who have been recommended by social service agencies in this area. This new operation builds on their previous experience.

“We spent 10 years growing our previous company, N.C. Outreach Home Care, which provided services to people with developmental disabilities,” said Scott Price. “We chose to sell that company back in 2012 to try our hand at a few other ventures.”

Price said he and Melissa have both been foster parents since 2005 and therapeutic foster parents since 2015 but decided to create a special place that serves teen-age boys exclusively. “Clear Sky Behavioral, LLC will look to make a positive impact on our residents,” he added.

“Our Mission is to mold children and the adolescents in ways they will become successful adults,” reads their Web site. “We will strive to accomplish this with firm, fair and compassionate leadership. We will demand success and will demonstrate by our own example the steps necessary to achieve these results.”
