"We knew we had to do something for our daughter who was sixteen and making choices damaging to herself as well as to our family. When you start to look at options for help, it can be scary because there are so many places to choose from. You want to know that she will be safe and taken care of.

Well, this is the place.

The Academy at Sisters was an incredible program for our daughter. She not only graduated High School, but she has a new outlook in life.

She is in college now due to a caring team of therapists and staff. The home setting is a wonderful place and the Sister Mountains a gift. Chelsea loved the equestrian program!

Thanks again Academy at Sisters!"
