Seven stepped?
Does that mean after you finished Step 7 you had to go around schools and other places to talk about Staight?

Posting under different names
I wonder if Velvet2000 and Elle are the same person? UMMM?! Why would that be? I must be mistaken. Oh well

Thank you 2 Dogs 2, Kathy etc.
Thank you for hearing that AARC is not like SEED, KIDS etc.Like I have said before AARC was going to be KIDS of the Canadian West.Dr.Vause, the parents from KIDS and some others decided not to go that route.The early days of AARC weren't the easiest because all the peers went through KIDS and really struggled with their own demons.By the time I had got there most the staff had left for various reasons and there was only 3 or 4 staff from kids left.As time went on and they went through lots of growing pains and made a lot of changes.They strayed away from a lot of the KIDS ways of doing things.AARC has found its own methods of helping the teens in a very positive loving way.I remember how hard it was back then and I am so grateful to how far AARC has grown and changed.I believe in AARC 100% and I will admit somethings in the old days weren't right but AARC has grown and changed a lot and they keep getting better as they go along. I have been clean,sober and living an absolutely wonderful since I went through AARC and many years since.Thanks for keeping an open mind!

I have been watching all the postings for awhile and it has really got me thinking.I have heard and read a lot about KIDS, the Seed and other abusive treatment centers.I went through one in the States (not nearly as bad as you have encountered)I hear your anger, frustration and how hard it is to recover from that ordeal. It is true AARC originally was going to be Kids of the Canadian West but Dr.Vause and the parents from KIDS decided to not go that way.AARC is different than what you think. Before you judge AARC based on 2 people's resentments you need to hear all the facts.There has been out right lies made on this site and many misinformed opinions.Some experiences expressed are their own interpatation as we all know there is 3 sides to every story.Mine,yours and the truth.

I just want to be able to share my experience and I have to say that if it wasn't for AARC I would not be here today (yes it is treatment lingo but it relates to me)

I hope one day you find the solutions to your recovery and i hope you find peace,joy and forgiveness.I will always be grateful to AARC and people like you who remind why I choose the life I have.Thanks for keeping me grateful and free from the hate I used to feel.Good luck on your journey and God bless.

P.S Please do not bring B@*#n N@#ls name into this he chose his own way out and AARC had nothing to do with that.His parents had no resentment towards AARC when they asked Dr.V to speak at his funeral. I was there.

Whatever
When you guys have been to AARC and made your own observations then I would maybe listen to your views.AARC was started as KIDS but is not KIDS.You think you know but you don't.

Losers
The thing I find the funniest is you all assume that only aarc staff are the only ones posting.It is not true I know of graduates that post here because we believe aarc helped us. No we are not all staff.

I also wanted to point out how different AARC is from KIDS. At AARC there is about 30 clients at KIDS there was 300. AARC does not belt loop or "motivate" to get up in raps.AARC does not "regress" clients for listening to old music,seeing old friends or having an impure thought.The graduates are not required to work on staff it is a choice.AARC is certified by social services KIDS was not.Dr.V does have a degree you are not looking in the right place (obviously because I found it)(( l.o.l))Just thought I'd throw my thoughts in.

Not running
Hi Cheeky54 we meet at last.I have read all your postings and have one question. Why do hate AARC so much? You are clean and sober. When your parents didn't come to AARC a woman took you in and took care of you( regardless of your opinon of her) You worked at AARC and eventually found your place in life.WHy would you be bitter after all these years and yes I know what you went through I was with you.

Let's talk
why don't you giveyour email address rather than wasting peple's time who really need this board?

lies told on this web site
First there are a lot so I won't be able to cover them now.First off let's leave B#$#@N N*&%^l out of this as he is dead.His death is not AARC's fault if you knew the story you would know why he killed himself.

AARC does not mentally,sexually or physically abuse people as for staff trying to cover it up is disgusting.As to your "stats" sexually abuse does not happen once a year.It does not happen.

As for the age to sign out it is 18 because Child Welfare demanded AARC meet their standards.As for sitting on you where did you hear that? From the KIDS or Straight so you could relate to somebody/anybody?I was never sat on.

Dr.Vause is a real doctor you will not find his name in the Alberta directory as he did not take it here in Alberta (Ithought you knew it all)As for Cheeky54 she told some things that were true, but where did she go after her anonimity was broken?

As far as someone killing for AARC's acceptance I have never heaard of this before and would like to know who your sources are.Unfortunatly I am out of time I will be back though to clear up anymore BS you may have.One question are you a bitter,lonely sibling or a resentful graduate?You can clear that up for me.

Dr.V
Why do you think Dr.V would care about your flyers or this site?
