| "Without Horizon’s Low Cost Referral Guide, Rachel would have never have been able to get help. We needed a partial scholarship to an addiction treatment program. This list was not only a great guidance for us, but a real life saver for our daughter. Thank you for all of your time and effort in putting this together for families just like mine!” ~ Christy and Jordan Adams, Oregon, July 2009 |
| “Our 15 year old son started abusing alcohol late last year. We never would have suspected anything like this from him as he is on the basketball team, and the swim team and is a straight A student. He had us fooled for a few months, and fortunately we found out in time. Seeking residential help is not something we are quite ready for, so we started using Horizon’s Family Values and Home Contract Guide to set some boundaries that we had not set before. We knew our son was headed for more serious trouble if we did not start providing consequences, even if he was a straight A student. So far, since March, he has really struggled with these new rules but also understands they are to keep him safe. Thank you for the guide and lists included, as we would never had been able to put all this together on our own.” ~ Mary and Rodney Adams, Washington, August 2009 |
| “Before I received a copy of the 2009-2010 Advocates Guide to Placements, I was very apprehensive of the programs that I had come across for the young kids I was assisting. Both I and the family were overwhelmed with all the unknown choices we found on the Internet. Horizon Family Solutions Guide for Advocates has really helped me to make a list of compatible programs and schools as well as it is easy to use and search from state to state without flipping through hundreds of pages. The Facts and Myths page has been very valuable to me as well. I was uncomfortable recommending a program I had not seen and just going off the Internet. I now feel when I am giving advice to parents I can remain calm and confident as we use this guide as a resource. I will be getting this every year!” ~ Michael Allen, Advocate, California, October 2009 |
