KidsPeace Family Center

I was at Adams Castle and it was amazing, I miss that place so much!

Oh my gosh, I missed this place so much! My sister and I were part of Kidspeace for a whole year. I really appreciate all the staff who helped us out—Karen, Olga, Maria, and that psychologist I can’t remember her name, but she was always Giving us pizza after therapy! 💓

I’ve had the most awful experience with Kidspeace and the Autism Society of Lehigh Valley. In their support group, I felt that I wasn’t allowed to share my views after they brought up HRT which made me extremely uncomfortable. Rob Harvey even turned a blind eye on the situation by saying it helps them grow breasts or become more masculine which only added fuel to my fire. It was supposed to be an autism support group, not a trans group. One of the members of the group had allegedly got me fired from my job by emailing my employer because of my political views. After that, I developed serious trust issues with joining other groups. Don’t ever go there!

I wrote a review regarding linden street house and the presidential campus but there wasn’t enough room for everything I wanted to say so I’ll continue here since there’s no listing for those places on here for some reason. Me and the other kids were constantly STARVING. They barely fed us and the food they fed us was disgusting and so we would throw up if we tried to eat it. You weren’t allowed to ask for more of anything on your plate unless you ate everything on your plate which for us kids was impossible because everything but the meat and bread was so disgusting it made us regurgitate it immediately. So we just starved. The bloodwork nurses were so mean and if we cried cause we were scared of the needle they told us to shut up and sit still. They doped all the kids up on powerful potent psych medications and not just one or two but like 4 different ones and most of these kids were not needing even one they just doped us up cause it made us easy to control and made us robotic zombies who obeyed without question. A man who worked at linden street named Dave physically put his arm out while I was running and knocked the air out of me and screamed with his face bright red with anger “no running indoors!!!!!!!” I was in so much pain and he kicked me while I was on the floor and said “go ahead tell your mother I did that to you you can’t prove it!!!!!” He and so many other staff were so evil to the kids. When we cried because of the abuse we were told if we didn’t shut up before the count of three that we would start losing privileges. It made us stuff down our feelings which bottled up and made us explode later on. Then we got punished for that. All the good kids were all emotionally mentally and physically deprived and abused by the staff and the bad sneaky kids that were there with us. Kidspeace was a living hell for children and I still have horrible nightmares about it.

I’m not too happy with this place. we just moved out here from New York where my daughter was getting tons and tons of services for some of her educational disabilities and mental disorders. I was recommended Kid’s Peace and I was told that they would be really good for my daughter but that was not the case. Took her to a walk in evaluation and after we were told she would be good for their hybrid program where the kids stay for 8 hours for 14 days doing therapy and working with others. I received a phone call not too long ago saying that they would not be able to help me because my daughter has difficulty reading and they would not be able to have someone read any questions they might have for her or if they need for her to write stuff down they don’t have anyone to help her write the stuff down and I found that to be such a huge disappointment I can’t believe that they’re turning my kid down because she has dyslexia and no one can help her with her behavior issues I just cannot even believe that was what they told me

What a complete waste of time and money. My son was in the partial hospitalization program for the 7 days he was approved for. We left with more questions then answers and absolutely no wrap around services. We were told there was a two month waiting list to receive outpatient services and that they couldn’t provide us with any other help. He was told to go back to school with zero recommendations made for how to help him be successful. No matter how desperate you are, try to find services elsewhere. This is a revolving door that won’t help you.
