When you are searching for high schools for troubled teens, there are many questions that can help uncover the information that will help make the best choice for your child.  Jeff Brain has just published a guide to help parents make an informed decision.  Within this resource Jeff develops dozens of important questions, provides objective resources to help provide perspective, and gives a clear overview of options so that exist to meet the needs of struggling youth.  As Jeff shares,

“My hope in writing this is to provide parents with a checklist — a list of important and necessary things to look for, questions to ask, and mistakes to avoid when touring a campus. The list is developed not only from my experience as the director of admissions at a therapeutic boarding school, but also as a clinician who has visited over 100 schools and programs.  From both sides of the table, I have experienced the challenge of not only learning and understanding programs, but in accurately representing them as well.”

The resource list from this resource is as follows:

The following are good, objective, informative websites that can provide you with helpful information about your therapeutic school search.
