Harborcreek Youth Services

"Harbor Creek youth services saved my life As a child I was a hard case to say the least They taught me to be a human being.. They taught me the fundamentals of being a functional member of society.. This was the mid 90's I am now a business owner if it was not for them I wouldn't be where I am today I'd be locked up or worse Lynn Lombardo your still my hero even tho we never really got along you saved my life!! An I thank you"

"This place is abusive. They physically harm the clients. They say very hurtful things. I stayed in my dorm 90% of the time because I was worried about being abused by staff and residents. I am permanently traumatized from being here. The therapist never helped. They left red mark and burns from dragging me on the ground. Please save your child’s childhood. This place hurt me. And it will hurt more"

"If i could give a 0 i would. Place is a joke 3 weeks in and its all a lie. Working on pulling my kid out. Dont reccomend sending a child here as a rtf. The director leaves early it seems like everyday never their when they open. The staff has been very disrespectful towards me. No communication at all in the 3 weeks my son has been their. The director is a coward knows im upset and still wont call me back about staff issues."

"I only have a minimal experience with Harborcreek Youth Services. I've presented two programs there on the topic of Healthy Relationships and Learning How to Set Boundaries. All's I can say is that every time I've been there, the staff has been super friendly and they really do their best at encouraging the youth. They live, work, and breathe something called 'the Sanctuary Model'. This creates a very comfortable and welcoming atmosphere that really changes the environment to one thats more positive and understanding of the youths' background. HCYS truly seems like a special place with very caring people."

"I was in this placement as a juvenile many years ago. I remember a Mr. Lenny from the Peach Street unit and the staff there did an outstanding job. Though I haven't been back in over 15 years I stand by what I say. Excellent programs, facilities and the staff were always there to lend a helping hand. My real name is David Pecora, please send my thanks to all the staff & personal."
