Totally right,

Throughout Cedu there was an extreme power struggle going between the therapist and staff allies and the old school staff that did not want to change things.  I can remember addressing the yelling and the disrespect people endured.  Essentially being told to be quiet or else.  All you can do is try to protect children in the environment and work to change staff beliefs  A corporation tends to take on a life of its own, a separate entity, and just like animals; it will protect itself from change.  For former students who are resentful of their stay there....fight to change it.  Don't sit there and critize from afar.  Get involved, get proactive, finish your education and manifest change.  When trying to change something, its good to have energy on it but the reality is systems resist change.  There needs to be a coordinated effort in the state policy.  Its easy to be angry and resentful.  Its harder to do something positive with it.

Good luck

I spent 7 years with Cedu doing various jobs: admissions, resource coordinator and counselor.  I am now finishing my Master's Degree in Social Work.  I think I pretty much have the inside scoop on most Cedu activities.  I do not have a   conflict of interest in addressing your questions because,  I do not work for cedu anymore and do not plan to work for them in the future.  You can reach me at salmdsanid@hotmail.com

Howdy,

Just came across this site.  I am a former employee of Cedu.  I worked there for around 7 years and had such jobs as an admissions counselor, counselor, and Resource Coordinator.  I am now in my Master's Degree program for Social Work.  I definitely have mixed feelings about my employment at Cedu. You can contact me about Cedu, but I would rather remain un-named.  You can reach me at salmdsanid@hotmail.com.
