GBIgnite is incompetent Ignite is not competent in dealing with complex cases and they lack the integrity to admit and refer clients out. My sister has been in the Ignite system for over half a year now and she is still at square one without a diagnosis. They are very persuasive and reassuring about the care they offer especially with parents who are most desperate. Most of the staff are not qualified enough to deal with certain issues and some have no inkling of mental health at all. If you are looking for a treatment center worth your while seek a place with affiliations such as to a hospital, find out about their credentials, and make sure they are evidence based and specialize in the care you need. Most of all keep searching for the right place and people for help and don't fall for business schemes.

GBHow ignite ruined my life So I was at ignite for about 2 years, the hell I went through is indescribable. I'm a pretty regular guy but my parents sent me because they were getting divorced and didn't know how to deal with an angry 15 year old. But of course ignite doesn't care because they are only around for the money. They treated me like a criminal I couldn't even use the bathroom with the door closed. I work in a grocery store behind the counter getting minimum wage because I couldn't learn the life skills I need to get a good job. My life is completely ruined and its all thanks to the wonderful staff at ignite(who are random teens that they picked up from the streets). There's not much I could do at this point but I don't want what happened to me happen to others.

GBteencenter saved my child life! I sent my daughter to the teen center as last effort to get my daughter off drugs. I had her in other programs with no success in fact her drug addiction. Got worse. I thought I had lost her to drugs, I didn't. Even recognize her anymore,but the teen center not only got my daughter off drugs but help her through. Her issue to why she started doing drugs in the place. My daughter is drug free, and back in school, and spend spare time volunteering. I can't. Thank teencenter. Enough for giving me back my daughter.

GBFirst Step to a sober life It's been a year since my son left treatment. Their are no words that can express the gratitude and respect we have for the staff. Without them I wouldn't have my son back on track. They gave him the tools and motivation to move forward to live a sober and happy life. Great facility and staff.

GBCelebrating 6 months! My son and I are celebrating 6 months clean this week. We never thought it would be possible. The teen center worked with both of us to improve our relationship and fight his addiction together as a team.
