I had a family member go here and there is a staff there that is a rude control freak. This man should not be working in a rehab facility. He has no compassion and large lack of empathy. He argued with this person and then kicked him out. I mean if a person is an addict do you think they are going to the happiest person in the world. NO! They are struggling and are trying to get clean. Long and short my family members addiction has gotten worse and we cant get them to get help.
Thanks for nothing teen challenge.
By the way I dont know the staff persons name: but he is a dark skin male that wears glasses and has an accent.

After struggling with substance use for over 20 years of my life, I went through the MnTC Long Term program. I now have nearly 6 years sober! My life and family have been completely restored, more than I could have ever hoped for. This place is more than a treatment center. It is a place to find a new life, hope, and a future, free from addiction. It is a community of people who truly care and believe this freedom is possible for every person who walks in.

Wrong meds were given. Staff doesnt do anything about stealing or people getting high. Shoving God down peoples throats.

This is a wonderful structured medication assisted program with church optional, baptisms, large group therapy and small group therapy, chores, 12-step program, they are given assignments to do and journals and Discovery Bible, a gift upon entry of small items like toothbrush and toothpaste, there is telephone time which is structured and family visitation night (Thursdays) and family visitation afternoon on Saturdays. They can see a doctor on site. There are pods I think of six persons and two persons to a room. It's a wonderful program!

Every story Ive heard coming out of here has indicated to me this is a deeply unhealthy, manipulative, and EVIL place. Ive known many that were refused their meds , being told your faith is the problem, not psychosis, heart disease, or what-have-you
Look up the history of Teen Challenge and the Troubled Teen industry. Its a cult.
