Outcome Statistics

There are many programs throughout the United States designed to help troubled youth. They vary in philosophy, on how they work with the students, and the results they obtain. Wanting to be among the very best, we have instituted a number of proven methods to empower and help our students be more prepared for life and to make better choices in the future.

Obtaining feedback from our students is important to us. This feedback helps us improve and ensure we stay on track.

For the past two years, we have given 160 departing student a survey called the Youth Outcome Questionnaire, a nationally-recognized statistically normed test.  The test is administered within the first week of a students arrival and administered again before the students leave the program.
