Deciding Placement for Troubled Teens
How Do I Decided the Best School for My Child?
A Free Guide written by Jeff Brian, a Certified Educational Planner, highlights frequently asked questions and concerns governing this question. In Jeff’s own words:
“For years, I have worked with parents of troubled teens and struggling teens as they have searched for therapeutic boarding schools. This is one of the most difficult decisions parents must make on behalf of their child and their family. It has significant implications not only for the immediate future, but long into adulthood. Finding the right program can be daunting, given the many options, subtle differences between programs, and the marketing that schools and programs have in place to draw prospective parents.”
The guide goes in depth regarding what questions you, as the parent, should be asking the programs. Some questions include:
- What does the school / program specialize in?
- How long has the program been in operation?
- Is the school a member of any professional organizations?
- How is the relationship between the program and its alumni?
There are over 30 topics noted in the guide that will assist you with program placement. If you would like this free guide please enter in your email address below and one will be sent to you.
