Hello, it has been awhile since i posted. We are in our school break till the 4th. Students are doing projects, activities, and enjoying some time off school. They are all continuing with their therapy sessions. Many students made high levels and are home for the Holiday’s. We will be excited to see them when they get back and hear all about their time at home.

Our daughter, Caroline, was at Cross Creek from September, 2004 to December, 2005. The decision to send her to Cross Creek was the best decision her father and I could have made. Not only did it save Caroline’s life, the program gave her and US the tools for living in family values. I cannot stress how important the seminars are for parent growth. We were pleased through out the process, knowing that Caroline was getting not only much needed therapy, but that she was also being nurtured by her family representative. I have continued to recommend this program to parents over these past few years. If you want to speak with us personally, please contact Cross Creek for information. Cille and Vern Swaback

Cross Creek was a miracle for our family. My daughter, Kristin, was on the road to self destruction and taking her father down with her. That was Daddy’s Little Girl and she was not behaving the way she should have been. He was an emotional wreck and she was enjoying watching the things she did to him. She was going to parties, getting drunk, having sex, doing drugs, running around at all hours of the night, with no concern for herself or anyone else. She loved to play mind games with all of the therapist I sent her to here. She was a very confused young lady. At age 15 she started cutting on herself. Once a week I would search her room to look for knives missing from the kitchen( i kept count). Her diary was full of terrible pictures, recollections of her daily events and how much she hated her family, even suicide attempts. She even told people in her school that we were not her parents, we were her Aunt and Uncle. Her mother was dead and her father in prison, for raping her and her friends. Kristin was tearing our family apart. Calling Cross Creek and getting her into this program was the best thing. It was the hardest thing we ever had to do. She hated us at first for putting her there, however, she will tell you today that it was the best thing we ever did for her. She could not play mind games with her family rep or her therapist at Cross Creek. They had seen her kind before. She learned to love herself for who she was, not who she thought she was. She also learned to appreciate the small things in life and that even if you arent the most popular kid in school, you are still important. We all learned from the seminars. At first I thought they were not going to affect me, I was wrong. The seminars are very moving and really help with the emotion roller coaster. Kristin completed the program at Cross Creek even though she had turned 18. She has grown into a strong young woman. Today she works with myself, her father and brother at our family business. She is truly drug and alcohol free. This would not have been possible prior to Cross Creek. The Cross Creek Program is the most powerful system that I know of. The staff is truely concerned about your family and its success. Our family today is a wholesome family, no one is allowed to play the victim anymore.

Hi Jeni,
Our daughter Kelly spent 14 months in the Cross Creek program and it changed her life dramatically. Kelly had serious alcohol and drug abuse issues and her level of self esteem was incredibly low, to the extent that we feared for her life. The change in her was dramatic, now 4 years out of the program she is just finishing her junior year at the University of Redlands, is the leading runner on the woman’s cross country team and is an inspiration to her peers and family.There is no doubt in my mind that Cross Creek saved Kelly’s life and I am eternally grateful to the wonderful, dedicated, caring staff. Sincerely,
Richard

Cross Creek and the corresponding program saved my daughter’s life (literally). You can not put a price on that so yes it was worth it. It also improved our father-daughter relationship, we keep in touch and visit each other. Audrey slipped back into some old habits, but after experiencing the costly results, has decided to make better decisions with the tools she learned from Cross Creek. I do not believe that would have happened without the program. The program also helped me with my own issues and to improve my quality of life. Would I do it again? Definitely!!! Glen Thompson

Congrats to Brandilyn C and Betsy C from Cross Creek Manor on your High School and Program Graduation. We know how hard you have worked to achieve this.
Alex S, Marco E and Zackary T are leaving us as High School and Program Graduates. They have become such wonderful gentleman. You will be missed.
Cross Creek Programs wants to be sure our program graduates know we will miss them as they head back home to school. Kelsey C, Krystal M, Kelsie B, Brianna D, Sydney M, Joa S, Hannah W, and John G. Being able to complete and graduate our program is a very big accomplishment and should not be taken lightly. These students choose to stand for them selves and take a look at what was not working in their lives and do something about it. Way TOO go!!!!

Dear Cross Creek Staff:
I am writing this letter to let you know that our family is so appreciative of the care and knowledge you have shown to our son. Even though it has been a short time, Blake has shown growth and maturity that I could have only hoped for. He is “getting it” and realizes that his choices were leading him to his grave.
Blake in the beginning asked us to pull him out, but through the dedication of the staff he has made a break thru, and in three short months he is beginning to grow—thank you! I feel I will be writing more of these letters as our journey continues. Thank you in advance for all you will do for our son and brother.
With warmest gratitude,
Tina, Scott, Chase, Bryan, Talia
