One of the projects I have been working on recently is compiling a complete list (or as close to complete as we can get) of all of the known resident ial treatment centers, wilderness programs, emotional growth boarding schools, youth ranches, faith-based centers, and other facilities where minors live for 30 days or more and receive mental health services and/or behavior modification and/or religious treatment. Some of the resources I have been using to build this list include the wiki here, unsilenced.org, npidb.org, and LOTS of old newspaper articles. The good news is that I'm getting pretty close to done (for now!) but I could really use all of your help in making sure that I don't miss anything. I know it can be painful to be left out of community resources and all of your experiences matter to me (and to our movement).
I would appreciate it tremendously if you could check my lists for states where you received treatment and let me know if your program is missing. I'm trying to list addresses whenever possible so that it's easier to track rebranding attempts, but if you could just provide your program name and program location, it would be extremely helpful!
Right now I have the lists split into documents by region. The programs are listed in alphabetical order, but I recommend using the search function (ctrl + f) to look for your program in case it has changed names.
