Reviews of KVC Missouri Niles Residential & Academy
"They disrespect your kids they come in smelling like weed they tell your. Kids that your bad parents and the leave bruses on your kids"
"Why is this place responding to those who give 1 star with the same apology? Instead of doing that you should take what they are saying and do something about it. I understand that children are a hot mess when they come there, however if your business is to offer support and resources as well as the professional help and mostly love these children need, then that's what the focus should be. Fighting and other nonsense should be forbidden, and every one should follow rules or be kicked out, not matter what the situation is. How are those unruly children going to learn if you all let them get away with chaos?"
"My family of three has been attending a 14-week family parenting class at KVC Niles. We have enjoyed every week, and the teachers, Shelby, Nikki, and Lydia, are excellent!"
"i posted a review on kvc before, but i feel like my description prior was not enough. i mean no disrespect to the founders or owners of kvc niles, however i do not think any parent, guardian, or caseworker should send their child here. i lived in this residential for several months. no, i was not perfect but i dont think i shouldnt have had to go through the things that i did. bluntly, this place traumatized me more than anything i have ever experienced. the worst thing was probably the residentials conditions. things may have changed since i discharged in september 2021, but it does not make up for the environment i was forced to endure. i was placed on the "girls unit" which is overall just a hallway with bedrooms, and a main room where the couches and tv was. only people assigned female at birth were placed on this unit to sleep (with the exception of a covid outbreak last summer). during my stay, the bathroom was probably my least favorite of it all. we did not have a shower curtain on either of the showers, or any mats to absorb the water that came out of the shower itself. this caused water to pool up on the floor. im not exactly sure how many clients were on the unit, but there was enough to make shower time horrifying. every time i would exit the shower, i had no choice but to walk through dirty cold water on my way to exit the bathroom. the pooling of the water also caused water damage on the interior of the bathroom. i couldnt tell if it was mold or just decaying wood, but it was black. the rot stood out from the "white" walls. now, dont get me wrong, i am grateful for everything the staff did for me and my peers, such as outings and barbecues. however, these acts of kindness did not make up for the residential itself. for the first few months of my stay at kvc niles i was placed on the boys unit during the day, because i identified as male. i did not sleep on that unit, and i never experienced assault from my male peers, however the experience there was not a good one. the only two differences between the boys and girls unit was that they held different genders, and the boys had two units. one for adolescents, the other for preadolescence. at the time i was 13 years old, so i was placed with the preadolescence. there were two boys i remember the most. one was younger, but always picking fights with the older one. they also happened to be roommates. day after day i would hear about or witness these two get into a fight. however, they never switched rooms. now, its not my place to make that judgment, but you would think to prevent violence they would at least try to separate the two while they slept. i mean no disrespect to anyone working at kvc or staying at kvc, but everything ive said in this review is from my personal experience. i understand that children and teens need therapeutic support and a controlled environment to live in, but kvc is far from that. there were several months during my stay that we did not have a recreational therapist, and the therapists themselves were no good either. again, i mean this with no disrespect. the environment was controlled in a way that made it chaotic. there were physical fights, verbal fights, and just chaos constantly. but i do know i was not perfect, and i did contribute in misbehavior. however, i was not the only client that acted this way. if you are a parent, guardian, or anyone in charge of a child in need, please do them a favor and do not send them here. the photos posted look nice, and in fact the outside of the units do look nice. but i promise you it is nothing like that from a clients point of view. much love and good luck"
