This blog is my place to vent and share resources with other parents of children of trauma. I try to be open and honest about my feelings in order to help others know they are not alone. Therapeutic parenting of adopted teenagers with RAD and other severe mental illnesses and issues (plus "neurotypical" teens) , is not easy, and there are time when I say what I feel... at the moment. We're all human!

Good News/ Bad News

Nebraska finally responded on Monday that Kitty does NOT meet their requirements for residential treatment (in Nebraska she would only qualify for in-home therapy and wrap around services), BUT that they are going to assume that she has received all the services Texas is able to provide and have decided to provide funding...

BUT San Marcos Treatment Center (which was the place we'd chosen) is no longer a provider for Nebraska Medicaid so we have to find another residential treatment center (RTC),

AND they have to specialize in trauma therapy.

So far these were our next best choices:

The Center for Success and Independence

Devereux

The Settlement Home

Anyone know anything about them or a better alternative in Texas?
