Does anyone know of a forum like this for former Daytop residents? I have been searching the web for information about abusive treatment at Daytop and I can't find anything. This amazes me. During the late 80's-early 90's, I was in and out of this TC. I experienced and witnessed horrendous abuse at the hands of staff members. I don't know why Daytop isn't exposed and other former residents aren't speaking out. Any help in finding info will be greatly appreciated.

Grab the bag, Face. Heeere's Lonnie!
http://www.strugglingteens.com/parents/findersfees.html
A kind of finders' fee Lonnie didn't mention
though is the kind where program parents are
offered forgivness of fees of some kind for
bringing in new clients. Every kid in town
must look like a junkie to such a parent.
I don't think Hyde pulled that when I was
there but it's been 25 years.
Didn't you say STRAIGHT(r) did that Antigen?

hey Face,
Was Hyde ever a possibility for Alex too?
If so you may have a Hyde parent running
around your community selling Hyde to all
his friends Amway style.

hey Matt
It still is in Bath, ME. Also they've
expanded to a second campus in Woodstock,
Conn. The good news I guess is that Hyde's
a lo-calorie version of the programs under
discussion here. The bad is that their vision
is not to be a rehab or even a 'special
school' but a model for all schools. To this
end thev've opened up two 'charter schools',
one in New Haven,Conn. and one in Wash,DC
(These are day schools I think).
Peace,
Tommy

I don't know who owns it but I sure hope it ain't Outward Bound ! I would also like to know if it was this allegedly OB owned wilderness that referred this kid's folks to Hyde. I thought that Outward Bound had learned their lesson about Hyde in the seventies! You see OB ran the wilderness component of Hyde's early summer challenge program for a while. According to the story that I remember OB severed their relationship with Hyde a couple of years before I landed there in 1976 because they thought Hyde's people were nuts.

In a disturbing development, his program is apparently owned by Outward Bound which has generally stuck to voluntary wildnerness adventures before, but has a small number of 'thereaputic programs'. He described Outward Bound's Ascent program as being staffed by the same kind of ill trained, brainwashed creeps that work in a lot of the less reputable companies.
Hey, I'm pretty sure Ascent is run by the Mormon Church, isn't it?

Hi, i'm is tommyfromhyde and i'm anonymous.
Good find Face! The Denver Rocky Mountain News has been on to this WWASP/Teen Help outfit for at least a year or so. However they don't archive back very far so also good work mirroring that one. there's an article that I think they did that gave me an idea about suing abusive programs that I just can't find on their site anymore.
Peace,
Tommy

"You know Straight, you do not not GT and you ignore the differences I point out to you."
Would a dog by an other name still be a dog, and would a dog that has had a bath still be a dog, and would a dog that got itself a good set of lawyers and a good PR team still be a dog? Of course it would, and anyone who suggested otherwise would be called a fool. You are not a fool Blopa but you are certainly being played like one.

MY SECUIRUTY
how is it that even though I was a minor while in treatment you were able to obtaqin the address of my parents? News of this forum has disturbed me somewhat and I will investigate further.
I have always felt that the program was engaged in admitting teens who did not need that kind of treatment and that they were milking many middle class families dry.
