Transported to Treatment
Today we explore the process of what it looks like to transport a child to a treatment program. It takes building trust with the child. It comes with fear, and that's where we must work with parents to alleviate the fear, give them as much information as we can so they can process what to do, how to do it, and how to move forward.
What is a SafePassage
A parent's decision to send their child to a residential program, or a wilderness program to seek treatment is one of the most difficult decisions they are faced with. How parents get their child to the physical location to get them help can be a challenge. Sometimes the child is not willing to go, or the parents can't bare to "drop them off." This is where a trusted transport company comes into play like SafePassage Global.
Holly Hunter is the founder of SafePassage Global, and a private investigator for more than 20 years. She holds certifications in crisis management intervention and has been a Christian life coach. Holly is also a first responder, and a certified mental health coach. In her spare time she enjoys writing, singing and taking pictures.
