My daughter has been at Alpine for 6 months, and is preparing to come home next month. So it's…read moreinteresting to read these reviews - or god forbid you go down the Reddit rabbit hole. Let's acknowledge a few things up front - If you've found this yelp page - it's not going well. Your child has reached a place where you're desperate for help. In that desperation - realize that can open you up to manipulation. Just have your guard up. First, it's interesting to me that parents on here give Alpine 5 stars / and kids give it 1 star. I think this is a matter of perspective. I also think, that perhaps without Alpine - maybe those kids wouldn't even be in a place to leave a review at all. Don't know. Second, gloves off - this is a business. Forget all the non-profit nonsense. This is an industry - it's called the Troubled Teen Industry. Like any industry - you need to educate yourself. Learn the terminology. Feel your way through was feels like sales - and what feels therapeutic. Which is really hard- because it's such an emotional time. Couple of things I wished I knew before this program. 1. The most important decision you're going to make is who your kids therapist is. Spend a lot of time here. 2. The program is in Erda, UT. Staffing is an issue in every business today. Think how hard this is in Erda fucking Utah. The house staff varies widely in experience. And turns over a lot. Expect inconsistency. 3. You're gonna learn a lot of new terms - "getting signatures" "priv pauses" "redos". They are scary at first - but it's how they keep they keep the frame work of order in the house. It's a little petty - but it's not terrible. 4. If you're sending your kid to alpine because you're pissed at them it's the wrong choice. While this sucks - it's about finding the best therapeutic fit. See a lot of programs first. 5. During the interview here we had a lot of conversations over "fit". We found this to be a bit of nonsense. They said that they don't admit violent kids - news flash - they do. What they should say is - if our beds are full we have high standards. If we have space - we are more flexible. That's right. Your kids gonna see some shit go down. It ain't great. But it's reality. Remember it's a business. 6. It's expensive as shit. And your insurance isn't going to cover much or any of it. Don't fall for the "we ran a precheck". It's $615 a day. People are doing all kinds of things to pay for it - second mortgages. Loans. Emptying college funds. 7. The school part is the gold star here. Real schooling. 8. Be an advocate. If you want to call your kid. Call them. They are your kid at the end of the day. Don't forget that. 9. This is just my opinion. Don't stay too long. There are kids that have been their over 16 months. Imagine that fucking bill. Get your therapeutic needs met. And get out. The longer you stay. The longer that scene feels normal. And it ain't. That's it. Good luck in your journey. It totally sucks.

When we finally got to the front they searched my bag (literally began pulling things out like I am a criminal) and told me I could not bring in my snacks. I'm sorry but I need to feed my daughter and myself healthy foods and make sure we are properly hydrated. To have my personally belongings search and then talked to like an animal was completely uncalled for. I had to beg for a refund because I will not be disrespected like than. The head lifeguard then tossed me my $12 with no words. I know people will not stop going there due to the fact that's it the only thing like that in the county, but the way it is managed is terrible.

As a parent, I am incredibly proud of her and so grateful for the confidence and skills Franco helped her build. Franco taught her clearly and thoroughly, and she follows the advice and rules he gave her every time she drives. He is extremely knowledgeable about traffic laws (as a former police officer), very patient, and takes the time to make sure students truly understand the rules of the road--not just memorize them. I highly recommend Franco and Libertini Driving School to any parent looking for a professional, patient, and trustworthy instructor for their child.

The Other Side Academy is changing people's lives....literally. This facility is full run by…read morestudents and graduates-folks who have made bad choices (self proclaimed) and have decided to turn their lives around. They don't take money from the government or accept insurance and it's totally free for students to participate. (In fact, the longer you stay, you have an opportunity to make money while you're here.) It's not a traditional rehab center-in fact, they don't call it a rehab center at all. It's a home where students commit to live, contribute and abide by incredibly strict behavior protocol for not just months, but years. Their success rate is off the charts and students who graduate from the program are given tools to succeed at life, not just sent on their way. The funding for the Academy is mostly self-funded from their social enterprises (moving company, thrift stores, donut shops, etc.) which are all run by the students. The curriculum is rigorous with accountability and humility as the main theme that runs throughout. It's not for the faint of heart and they don't sugar coat anything, but if people are ready to make a significant change in their lives, this place will help them.
