My son has been at Diamond Ranch Academy since May, 2014. It is without question the best thing I've ever done for my son. He was spiraling downhill fast and after months of research I decided on DRA.
My son recently turned 18 and he decided to stay at DRA to complete the program. He joined the football team and is doing great with his classes. I have had the opportunity to spend time at DRA and their staff is top notch. They are accessible 24/7 and truly care about the students. They stay in constant contact with the parents and give updates on the progress of the student constantly. My son's therapist has done an amazing job and has been instrumental in helping him turn his life around.
The staff takes the students off campus often for day trips. They do all types of activities and for my son's 18th birthday his program director took him and his friends to dinner and miniature golf.
I would highly recommend DRA to any parent who feels powerless over their struggling teen. The staff at DRA is amazing and your son, or daughter will benefit greatly from the experience.
