I have to get out of Missouri. My parents are getting ready to put me under a bridge. I've slept under a bridge before, but then the river flooded, sweeping away my fort.

I'd like to go to the McClean Hospital program, but will never be able to afford it. With the closing of Taunton State Hospital, I feel like now I'll never be able to get the care I need when I go home. Missouri has nothing.

I like the way Wild Acre Inns presents itself. They appear to be very helpful.

I guess not many people live around BOS. I also have another question, what is daily life like in a group home/RCF?

that depends on which "house" and program you are in. if you scroll over the green bar for the residential and the partial hospitalization programs a box will open up. click on any of those programs and then scroll down on the page that opens up. you will see their daily schedule of groups and classes, meetings and on the upper portion of the page you will see a description of that "house" and what they do there. they also have pictures of what the places look like so you can get an idea of where you will be living if you enter that program.

I meant the question for group homes as a whole. I really like the Wild Acre Inn program. I'm hoping they'll admit me.
Thanks for this!
