We were only able to locate two of the facilities on

-1445 North CEDAR BOULEVARD CEDAR CITY, UTAH 84720 and
- 465 W 1600 N, CEDAR CITY, UT 84720

However the few photos on the myspace group and on their webpage makes it difficult to pinpoint the exact houses.

Another odd thing is that some of their enrollment papers are placed on the webpage of Academy of Eastern Arizona.. They share some of the staff-members too.

Our datasheet is rather short and it could be nice to expand it.

Please also look at the structure of the homepage of Re-creation retreat in Arizona. It is basically the same.

I was actually a resident at Integrity House in Cedar City, Utah. I was there for about two years. It sucked. It is almost impossable to gain levels and the staff there is really picky. They either like you or hate you. If you are hated, you get slammed with punishment 24/7. The punishment is essays. I turned 18 there and they were going to drop me to level one because I "relapsed" on my home visit. It was pathetic. Since I was 18, I told them I wanted my discharge papers, and they sent me back into the essay room. I couldn't even sign myself out. Two days later, Daniel, the owner, came down and put me in the car without telling me where I was going. He took me to Arizona (his other facility), and told me I could be a junior staff. That was even worse. I would recommend Cedar City to Arizona. There is the student advocate (Ruth) and she is a GOD AWFUL woman. I hated her with a passion. I stayed a couple of months thinking I could earn some brownie points and get sent HOME...that never happened. It was awful. Being at Utah or Arizona, your children will lead an extremely sheltered life, won't be able to speak their minds, and on family phone calls are not allowed to talk about what they were given essays for. You can not learn to be yourself. The only way to gain levels is to mold into what they expect. DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILDREN HERE! I have my life straightened out now, but after I got out, I became 10x worse than when I went in. You need to remember that children will be children. They are not perfect. It's better if they screw up now, than when they don't have their parents to fall back on later in life. I am 21 years old now and in two weeks I will officially be done with college and have a degree in Medical billing. This is all due to my own perserverance and my own determination. This is not the work of Integrity House or the Academy of Eastern Arizona.

I used to work at Integrity House.  I would not send my child there.  There was neglect, exploitation, and abuse.  The owner has had facilities closed down and has ties to WWASP, and he's a self-righteous s-o-b, in my opinion.
The place could be a haven, but nobody seems to care for the girls.  The staff are forced to comply with being assholes, or they get replaced.  I'm surprised I stayed on for over a year.  There was nothing in place to help the girls move forward in life, it was all guilt trip and brain wash from what I saw.  Nothing was there to help them learn better ways, it all rebounded on the girls being "bad," not people who made bad choices.  There was no attempt to break bad habits or teach them something to replace them aside from being inside away from them.
I urge parents to shop around.  Utah has some of the worst laws regarding children's rights, and as such it houses one third of children's residential treatment programs.
