- America's children are in trouble -- dropping out of school, experimenting with drugs and sex, getting into trouble with the law, joining gangs, and worse; tragically, few realize the consequences until it's too late.
Parents throughout the nation are baffled by how to help their troubled children. How can you figure out what to do? Where to go? How do you evaluate the level of care your child needs -- and what about your insurance coverage?
Where Can We Turn? from Jefferson Resource Institute provides answers. Our book will help you to evaluate the quality of care offered by a program, facility, hospital or other center working with troubled adolescents.
The information packed into this book was put together by independent adolescent behavior experts not affiliated with any program -- with the intent of guiding you through the process of choosing the best possible treatment plan for your child.
"I have reviewed and given commentary to this material. It has my hearty endorsement and approval for its honesty and its accuracy. In my practice as a Marriage and Family Therapist, Where Can We Turn? will become a very helpful and convenient tool to aid families in crisis. There has been a need for this publication for many years."
-- Dr. J. Kent Griffiths, D.S.W., Marriage and Family Counselor
