Positive Impact??

(1/14) > >>

jcb269:
Does anyone know anything about a school called Positive Impact in Bahia de Kino Mexico?  My parents sent my younger brother to Second Nature in Utah and after that he is going to Positive Imact for 14 months.  I am worried that it will turn out like one of the WWASP programs.  Interestingly there was a WWASP program that was closed down for abuse called "High" Impact and was listed as having been in baja (same area).  I am wondering if WWASP just recycled the program under a new name and fake company, like was done with Coral Reef Academy.  Any help would be greatly appreciated...he leaves in 3 weeks.  thanks

Didn't Tim Weiner write about Positive Impact in his article in the NY Times.  I remember reading something about it.  It was made out in the article to be a "better" place then Casa.  Of course who "really" knows.

Positive Impact is not associated or affileated with WWASP.
You don't find internet sites devoted to the support of Positive Impact survivors; or for exposing the abuse and neglect at Positive Impact, for what that might be worth. . .
They *seem* to be well thought of by the treatment community, for what that might be worth. . .
and thats all I know.
