Could you provide a link to the facility please?

yes, heard of it, spoken to alumni...no, would not recommend. doesn't appear to be as restrictive as some, but they do use isolation quite a bit, therapy is of questionable benefit given the coercion used.
I'd ask alumni on myspace.com they have a group there... serach groups for Logan River.

This is rather an odd time to ask, and an interesting board on which to ask. Did you investigate first? Where/how?
LRA uses a level system, which is not unusual, and is administratively easier than some alternates that focus on causes rather than consequences. They also have as their "root philosophy" a behavior modification approach, which doesn't solve problems, whatever they may be. Not the worst of places, but there are many better, if placement is "needed" at all.

LRA is a fantastic facility, i have visited the program several times as I have researched residential treatment centers for at-risk/troubled teens. For the record I am not employed nor associated with any RTC, and supporting LRA provides no gain to me, it is definetely one of the best RTC's that I looked at! If you have further questions post your e-mail adress and i'd be glad to communicate further with you!
