Reviews
"Techie for Life is a remarkable program tailored for individuals who are neurodivergent. The atmosphere exudes warmth and acceptance, creating a truly supportive environment. If you are seeing a program that celebrates diversity and fosters growth, Techie for Life is the perfect fit."
"Not a better environment to work in, I have worked in a couple different jobs working with Students and Neurodivergent Individuals and TFL is by far the best culture to work in. Everyone cares about progression and positivity which helps to be the best you can be. Belong to Become!!!"
"Techie was a godsend for us and our son. He was not happy or succeeding at home. We were told by counseling professionals that he would not fully mature until he was out on his own and supporting himself. He was always a high achiever in math and science including Honors Physics and Calculus in high school but just didn't have the drive for college or a career. We believed that Techie would be a good fit for him and it was. They really work at developing the whole person. Surprisingly, he was fully engaged with the program right from the start. He now lives on his own and supports himself financially. More importantly, he is very happy and much more sure of himself and much more conversant with us, his parents. I recommend this program highly to anyone who staff believes is a fit. I don't know where our son would have been without it."
"I am posting this review as a parent. Our son, upon turning 18 had the goal to live in Walmart parking lots in an RV and make money by producing YouTube videos. The team at TFL was the only supportive place that took him seriously and promised to work with him on a business plan. Long story short - after 3 months of really exploring this life plan, our son decided that the idea might not serve him so well. We could never have done this at home! Our son went on to go to Utah Tech and is now living on his own and working on his bachelor degree. The structured, non-judgmental support of the staff at TFL was a game changer! The real-life-skills our son learned at TFL have made a big difference."
"Definitely have helped me in the process of building healthy habits for adulthood, granted, I feel some of the employees are in the same position of lacking maturity as me which often makes communication difficult. Overall is worth it, with minor gripes"
