This program does not center the child as its first priority. Goal of program is to acclimate neurodivergent, and/or children with mental illness into the "normalcy of schooling" which includes being quiet, and sitting in a chair to follow instructions. Staff are not trained therapists and from my experience, ill informed of both neurodivergent children, as well as trauma-informed practices that are necessary when interacting with children who have experienced trauma. Neither raising your voice or restraining a child physically will help the root of the issue, which is what is causing the unwanted behaviors. If you are looking for help with your child, I would seek alternative places.

I am going to start by saying I have depression, and worse I am the kind of person who wants to solved everything by myself (not a good thing with this problem) and I hate people feeling sorry for me. So, I wont tell people about my problem (not a good thing). When I decided to reach out for help, I felt I was in a dark place and I needed help if I wanted to beat this. I am glad I took the decision to look for help. I reached out to several mental clinics looking for help with my depression and I got to say I was very impressed on how everybody that I talked to were very helpful and concern with my situation. Even though, some clinics didn't accept my insurance they were kind and pointed me to several places that might take my insurance. That's how I got to find Mental Health of Passaic. They are very helpful. Now, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. I hope this will help you to make the decision to look for help. Whatever problem is, there is still hope.
