A Father Is Thankful For The Help Sweetser Provided For His Son

Back in 2004, our son had an 8-week stayat the Sweetser Crisis Stabilization Unit in Saco.

Some of the best social coaching work that was ever done with him around developing coping strategies and using words to vocalize how he was feeling occurred during that time.The skills that he learned during this out-of-home-placement have helped him to be more successful at home, at school and in the greater community.

We will soon celebrate four years of our son being hospitalization free.This after a two-year period -- between 2003-2005 -- when seven out-of-home placements kept our son away for a total of 297 days.
