The Family Foundation School Responds to Its Critics
In the spirit of honesty, disclosure and transparency, we want you to know that there is a smear campaign being waged against The Family Foundation School by some alumni who feel angry about their placement and/or harmed in some way by their time with us. We have also participated in a thorough investigative review in June 2010 by The State of New York Commission of Care & Advocacy for Persons with Disabilities (CQC). This also has received some negative spin on the internet. This page is dedicated to separating fact from fiction and helping you process and balance the negative and positive information that is on the web about The Family Foundation School. I am glad to answer any questions you may have and I invite you to visit and tour the school to see the reality for yourself.

They reviewed documents and interviewed many staff and students. They did a thorough job. Two months later the CQC returned a report which found “no abuse or neglect.” Read More…

Open Letter to Colleagues and Referring Professionals
As you may know, The Family Foundation School is under attack by a small group of alumni who have partnered with a radical youth rights organization (CAFETY). Their web-site is a sensational collection of quotes and commentary that preys on the fears of parents who are faced with one of the most difficult decisions – that of placing their child in a residential program. They also are pursuing alumni of the school (and other programs) to convince them that they have been brainwashed. Their slanderous allegations are either false or distortions of fact meant to serve their own agenda. Read More…
