The Ironwood logo, "we understand, we can help" is not only to reassure you that we understand teens and know how to help them, it's also a personal statement to you. You see, just a few years ago, my husband and I were in your shoes, facing a decision we never dreamed of and having to enroll our child into a program away from home. That was the most challenging time our family has ever faced. And it was the most difficult decision we had ever made regarding our child. We have taken from that experience an appreciation for quality care, both for the student and for the parents. We learned firsthand that things can get better. Through that experience we discovered a new mission for ourselves... to help other parents and teens in similar situations.
We created Ironwood based on the things we experienced and on the standards of quality we believe every child and parent deserve. It is our belief that every child is special and deserves to be treated with respect and dignity. Rules and boundaries at Ironwood are firm, fair, and consistent -- never humiliating or punitive. As professionals, and, yes, parents, we have created a safe and nurturing environment in which teens placed in our care can learn to make better choices and to live healthier, happier, and more productive lives. Our competent and professional team of medical, therapeutic, academic, and behavioral specialists is devoted to the success of every child in our care. Each is committed to ensure that your child receives both an enriching as well as a life-changing experience. We also know what it is like to be a long way from our child wondering if everything is okay, so we created several special components to ensure that we help the parent as well.
Our accomplishments as a program has come from a collaborative, multi-disciplinary approach founded on research and experience. Our combined expertise has allowed us to succeed with young people where others have failed. The comprehensive services offered at Ironwood ensure your child is getting the best assistance in clinical, therapeutic, academic, and personal growth and life skills training. The total commitment to quality, safety, and excellence is not just a business requirement... it's a personal commitment -- A commitment born from experience. Enrolling your child is never an easy decision and it is not one that should be taken lightly... believe me, I know. And if you choose Ironwood, we will not take that decision lightly either.
