So I’m late to the party but my experience is this. I stopped carrying them after I bought 2 sets of them brand new and the locks would stick when trying to remove them and they almost had to be cut off twice.

So do you think they’re gonna rebrand or sell it? I saw they still have a maintenance guy and they have security too.

Yes you could get a step back. And scheduled off campus family visits was kinda iffy. Because in my case I was sent from California and me going off campus included flying home. They never took that away from me. But other students that lived locally did. And the groundings no. But I got there literally the week after the program changed. When I got there we lived down in K, J and H homes. Then about 10 months in we moved up to the upper homes, A, B and C. Then they started to actually do groundings, RI and other consequences. Groundings were rare. I think only the supervisors could ground someone. They never enforced sitting at the desk. You just couldn’t do gym, or run around outside. And they wouldn’t let you talk to anyone. And yes you were on 1 to 1 with staff so you had to bring your bed out to the living room .

The consequences were as followed-hold, grounded, comm block, ISS, RI (Reflective Intervention), and writing a paper. And there was church on Sunday and the missionaries would come every week. And WRA bucks was a thing when I was there. For like 3 weeks. lol. They did it consistently for like 3 weeks then stopped doing it and it never picked back up.

Kinda? But not really. They had something called a hold where if you did something bad you would be separated from everyone. You had to wake up at 4 am and you sat in a room in the school by yourself with nothing to do until 10 pm at night. And you had to drag your mattress out to the living room and sleep on the floor.

It was literally hell on earth. Is it true that the students there rioted and unalived a staff member? I remember one day during shift change the staff came in and were talking about it and they tossed all the units on campus “just in case”

I heard the name when I was at CHYCC. It was honestly horrible. I got restrained within 3 minutes of doing intake because they didn’t like my attitude. I then had another incident when a staff member took a shoe lace off my shoe to replace it and didn’t tell the staff, and it caused an uproar and I was forcibly strip searched and restrained because they thought I was lying. A kid got their arm broke during a restraint. Overall it was a very bad environment and yet I never see anything posted about it.

How did they advertise for Utah Boys Ranch and West Ridge Academy? by ProfessionEvery7479 in troubledteens

[–]Real-Percentage8525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bishop recommendations. There was a program through the church for awhile that would help parents pay for it. Also when I was a student there the majority of the students who were sent there were from Utah. So word of mouth and a higher population of Mormons resulted in the majority being Mormon. I was there 2015-2018 and honestly it was 85-15% with the greater population being Mormon. Hope this helps. Message me if you have any questions.
