It has been a long winter here. It seems each time we decided to try to have a hike or an outdoor activity it would snow. We have finally seen some good weather and decided to take advantage of it. I found this hike online and it was a little difficult to get there, (directions are not my thing) but we did finally find the trail and we were able to hike. At the top of this hike is a hole that was formed by erosion and according to the websites can be full of water. We were able to see standing water in many of these holes. The focus of the hike is to see how you have weathered the storms in your life and still standing. At the top of the hill we discussed how perspectives change when you look at things differently. </div>

It has been cold lately, but rain or shine we still get the boys out to do something fun. I heard about the Santa Clara Petroglyphs recently and thought it sounded like a fun hike to take the youth on. It did not disappoint. The hike wound up to a canyon edge where we saw many petroglyphs and the youth were able to climb and have fun while looking at the amazing things the Anasazi left years ago. Can I say again how lucky we are to live where we do? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The focus of the group for the day was preparation and relapse prevention. We discussed how these ancient people lived their lives and were always prepared for their future because it was how they survived. We had each of the youth discuss their strengths and what they can use to survive. It was a fun day and the youth seemed to enjoy it. </div>

It's been cold lately! We really wanted to get the youth out to do some hiking and get some fresh air. We headed to Snow Canyon State Park where we went on a hike. The focus of the day was goal setting and what goals did the youth want to accomplish this year. We spent time in group discussing goals. </div>

This is our favorite group of the year. It is the group where we are gone most of the day and have group into the night. We also have a dutch oven cook off with the youth. This year the focus was on empathy and how the youth can show empathy to their victims. It was a really great day. </div>

Bryce Canyon was one of the last therapy days we had. It's crazy that this place is such a short distance from us! It is an amazing place, if you have not been, you should take the chance and go there. We spent the hike discussing trials in one's life and how to over come those trials. It made for a great discussion. </div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This past week we took the youth out on another hike. The boys really like getting out and seeing new things. This is Cascade Falls. It is a short hike with some cool views of Zion National Park. After this hike we went on a longer hike around Navajo Lake. We ate lunch and then played in the water.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We stopped during these hikes many times and discussed mindfulness and living in the moment. </div>

I have been showing them in group and individual sessions. I had one of my clients bring this in and the client wanted to share it on the blog. I really like it and hope that it helps the client that wrote it and anyone else who needs to believe. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b>You have
to believe in yourself to achieve your dreams life doesn't wait for you ,you
have to want what you can get and if you don’t you will fail failure is an
excuse we make for ourselves when we don’t get something right the first time
when we don’t understand something the first time and that’s why when that
happens you keep walking you keep moving you keep dreaming you keep believing
and you don’t stop until you have achieved every dream you have ever wanted and
when you’re at your wits end and you don’t want to keep moving <o:p></o:p></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">When you
do something wrong and you get a lot of crap for it and people yell at you and
tell you that you should know better that’s when you know! That you are working
your hardest because everyone else knows you are and want to see you succeed!
Then you know you are not alone there will always be someone who shares the
same dream you just have to be willing to go out and find them not everyone
will appreciate who you are there are going to be people who push you down and
crush you to the point of giving up and you choose to let that happen or you
choose to let it lift you because it </span>doesn't<span style="font-family: inherit;"> matter what others think of you if
people say you suck your trash your worth nothing then you be the one to say I
am doing my best and that’s all that matters cause at the end of the day if you
feel like you have accomplished something if you feel happy about how your day
went you will know with the surety of a higher being that you can succeed<o:p></o:p></span></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> you will succeed and nothing will stop you no
one can stop you, you are a force of nature that can’t be stopped and won’t be
stopped if people tell you your awesome that your inspiring that you are the stuff the stars are made of then you let
that raise you up higher than what you can reach alone cause life was meant to
be lived to its fullest extent and you </span>aren't<span style="font-family: inherit;"> here to just waste your time away
your here to show what you can do to make yourself better and to lift other
people up as high as their lifting you <o:p></o:p></span></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">and if
you don’t say thank you and you don’t say I’m sorry once in a while you will
find yourself not being satisfied you
will feel as low as low can get and when you hit rock bottom I want to hear you
say I know I can because there is no such thing as I think I can if you think
it you still aint doin it because with ought the action there is no achievement
I want to see you go for your dreams remember we are all of us in the gutter
but some of us are looking up at the stars if you refuse to look then you are
choosing to refuse to believe it </span>doesn't<span style="font-family: inherit;"> matter what you have done or what you
did what matters is that you choose do better from then on from now on<o:p></o:p></span></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> If you accept the feedback people give you
then you will be better for it people have to think that you care before they
care what you think. you think you know how people feel you think you know what
has happened in people’s lives you think you know everything well guess what
you don’t the only thing you know is who you are and who you want to be I want
to see you say I feel for you I understand you that’s feeling empathy that’s
knowing you have had to deal with the same exact situation people have to know
that they are loved it’s our biggest weakness we have to be noticed and
appreciated if we </span>aren't<span style="font-family: inherit;"> then we choose to give up <o:p></o:p></span></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b>why ,why
does giving up come up so much there is no excuse for giving up it’s all a
simple choice it comes with free agency you are free to choose but you are not
free from the consequences of those choices the sooner you accept that the
sooner you will know that you are on your way to success.</b></span><o:p></o:p></div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The 90/10 Principle: 10% of life is made of what happens to you. 90% of life is decided by how you react. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Recently we went to Red Cliffs. It was a beautiful day.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The hike taught us a lot that day. We had to use the 90/10 Principle a few times on that hike. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I really can't say how lucky we are to live in such a beautiful place. </div>

Today we had the privilege of having the SUU Animal Ambassadors come visit and share their knowledge with us. The students who came were all Biology Majors at Southern Utah University. They discussed possible careers one could have with a biology major and showed the youth some pretty neat animals. The youth were able to pet the snakes, tarantulas, hissing roaches, lizards and geckos. Even one of the staff was able to participate. Sorry for the blurry picture, but I don't think Sefa liked the snake that much. </div>

We are thankful for the chance to have these students come visit us and share their knowledge and experiences with us. </div>

We live in a beautiful place. We decided to take the opportunity to explore some of the sights around us. We decided to go to a few hisoric places.<br />
I have been thinking a lot about legacy lately, and the kind of legacy we would like to leave for those who come after us. We used this theme today on our trip. We stopped at each of these locations and had a group on the legacy that the Native Americans left at Lion's Mouth and the Legacy that the pioneers left at Old Iron Town. It was a good day and nice to be out and about. I have included some of the information on the two sites we visited.<br />
. Old Iron Town, originally Iron City, is a ghost town in Iron County, in the U.S. state of Utah. It is located in Dixie National Forest, about 22 miles (35 km) from Cedar City. The settlement was founded in 1868 as a second attempt to mine iron from Iron Mountain after a disappointing yield from Cedar City. The colony lasted until 1876, when strife from the Edmunds–Tucker Act and the Panic of 1873 forced its closure. The site was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.<br />
<br />
All of the rock art in the Lions Mouth are Pictographs, using reds, white, yellow and
some black colors. It is thought that the art was done by Shoshoean or Paiute peoples. The next stop was the Lions Mouth. The Lions Mouth is an alcove located in a sandstone
formation high in a juniper forest. The alcove is about 200 feet long about 10 feet above
ground level. The alcove itself is about 10 to 15 feet wide and about 10 feet tall. The<br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Christmas time is a difficult time for many of the youth here at Turning Point. For some this is their first Christmas away from home. For others it may be just another year they do not get to spend the Holidays with their family. This year we worked hard to make new holiday traditions at Turning Point. We brought in some of our own family traditions from making gingerbread houses to having Santa Claus visit on Christmas Eve. We also took the youth to look at Christmas Lights and drink hot chocolate. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We held our family day on the 19th. Mrs. Carlile and her cooking class made a great lunch. The theme this year was Mexican food and it did not disappoint. We also held a family group on communication which was great as many families shared stories and thoughts they had. We appreciate all the families that were able to come and spend the day with their son!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We really enjoy working with these young men and look forward to what they next year brings us!</div>

We have a Peer Council and the Peer Leader or President will update the blog with activities and more of a personal view on the happenings in the program from a youth's perspective.<br />
Here is the first update:<br />
Weekly Events:<br />
Turning Point Family care has came up with new things that will help the youth take more charge of what is going on in the facility. We created directors so that youth can learn leadership and self discipline.<br />
<br />
The goal of president/leader is to help out the directors and assist them when they need the help. He is also in charge to make sure they get their duties done.<br />
The goal of the service director is to have one youth be in charge of setting up service for the youth and must have four hours weekly.<br />
The goal of Activity Director is to set up protocol activities for the level three and up therapy levels. He is in charge of off campus activities and helping to plan the longest day as well.<br />
The goal of the PRS Director is to teach the youth social skills that will help the youth with skills that they will need to return to society. They will facilitate PRS groups with the help of staff.<br />
<br />
Longest Day: 10-16-2014<br />
<br />
The youth had an 18 hour therapy day. For breakfast they had pancakes and bacon with over easy eggs on the Camp Chefs. Then the kids went to two elderly homes to do community service and spent hours helping them out.<br />
The kids then came back and went to the rooms and wrote resumes for what position they wanted. As I mentioned above there are directors and that is what the requests were for. Afterwards we had Sharon’s group about being positive and what it means to be positive? Then we made brochures that talked about our selves. After we were done with that we went around and each youth had to write down one positive thing about another youth on the brochures. Then we did a jump rope exercise that helped us practice our teamwork skills. And the staff went against the youth to see who completed the task first. After the jump rope we split into three groups and each team did their own Dutch ovens. Once we got done with the Dutch ovens we started a hike. that ended at the base of three peaks. After that we had a fire and spent time talking about what the youth needed to let go of. The things that we wanted to let go were thrown into the fire.<br />
<br />
As a youth, I thought that this was one of the best longest days that we had and I thought that the youth got along really well for the most part. I hope that we do this sometime soon again. I loved the food and the activities that we did.<br />
<br />
Halloween Party<br />
<br />
Paint pumpkin: 11:00The first place prize will get candy Twinkie, soda—Second place will get candy and Twinkie---Third place will get candy.<br />
Pumpkin pie contest: 2:00<br />
The person that wins will get a Twinkie<br />
Pumpkin search 4:00p.m.<br />
There will be 4 groups of teams and we the group that can find the most gets, will get a Twinkie and a soda each. <br />
<br />
Dinner 4:00 - 6:00 p.m.<br />
<br />

</div>
This month according to tradition we did a long, long day. We held many groups throughout the day and focused on the youth. We used the theme of victim empathy and empowerment throughout the day. We started the day off early with a big breakfast to fill the boys up. After that we went to two different homes to help the owners of the homes with their yard work. The boys and staff helped trim trees, rake leaves, throw stuff away, dig up gardens, etc. The people were so happy to have the help and really appreciated the help. This is a great way for our youth to interact in the community, not only to get their service hours, but to show that they can make a positive difference in someone else's lives.<br />

As administration we decided to start a new peer council for the youth. We developed this as a way to empower the boys in the facility and hopefully get them to see that they can control things in a positive way and use this control and power to build healthy relationships and have a happy life.<br />
We also did groups on self esteem, treating others with respect, and attunement with each other during the afternoon.<br />
<br />
As dinner time approached we let the youth know that they would be in charge of cooking their own dinners. We gave them the ingredients and told them to make what they wanted to make. We also broke them up into teams. It was a good way to see the youth come together and resolve conflict, or they did not resolve conflict. Some of the food was great, some of it was not.<br />

As the sun went down and dinner was cleaned up we had the youth read the following poem.<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-size: 13.5pt;">The Cold Within <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Six
humans trapped by happenstance <br />
in black and bitter cold <br />
Each possessed a stick of wood, <br />
Or so the story's told. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">Their
dying fire in need of logs, <br />
the first woman held hers back <br />
For on the faces around the fire <br />
She noticed one was black. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">The
next man looking 'cross the way <br />
Saw one not of his church <br />
And couldn't bring himself to give <br />
The fire his stick of birch. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">The
third one sat in tattered clothes <br />
He gave his coat a hitch, <br />
Why should his log be put to use <br />
To warm the idle rich? <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">The
rich man just sat back and thought <br />
Of the wealth he had in store, <br />
And how to keep what he had earned <br />
>From the lazy, shiftless poor. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">The
black man's face bespoke revenge <br />
As the fire passed from his sight, <br />
For all he saw in his stick of wood <br />
Was a chance to spite the white. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">And
the last man of this forlorn group <br />
Did naught except for gain, <br />
Giving only to those who gave <br />
Was how he played the game. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">The
logs held tight in death's stilled hands <br />
Was proof of human sin, <br />
They didn't die from the cold without, <br />
They died from the cold within. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">James
Patrick Kinney<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">After this we headed out on a hike at which the end they were greeted by the fire. At the fire they were to read on a piece of paper what was keeping their cold within and to burn it if they were ready to move forward. This was a very moving experience for so many of the youth, staff and therapists as well.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">We truly work with some great kids. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">We look forward to the next big activity!</span>Turning Point Family Care Inchttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04031992578277562400noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-558766699327831663.post-16912388706460401112014-07-15T13:57:00.000-06:002014-07-15T13:57:15.962-06:00Using the Twisted Forest as a Metaphor<div style="text-align: center;">
We are so lucky that we live in Southern Utah.The beauty that surrounds us is amazing. This past week we went on a new hike. It is called the Twisted Forest Trail. It is located just past Brian Head up Parowan Canyon. The Twisted Forest Trail is a short trail that has the Bristlecone Pine trees located on it. The Bristlecone Pines are some of the oldest living things on the planet. They can live for thousands of years. We saw many of these trees that have survived fires, droughts, freezes, and many different types of weather. We used these as metaphors for the things in their lives. The many storms they have encountered in their lives and survived. We discussed the history of abuse and other trauma's they have been victims of. We discussed how this has affected their lives and if they have chosen to be a victim or a survivor. Many of the youth seemed to take the message from this hike and use it as a motivation to change. At the top of the trail we looked out over the view and discussed how at times we have to go through hard trials and it seems that all we do is climb mountains, but at the end it is worth it. </div>

Cedar City is such an amazing community to live in. It is a small town, but there are many giving and gracious people. Upper Limit Aviation is a flight school that is here at the airport. Check out their website <a href="http://www.upperlimitaviation.edu/">http://www.upperlimitaviation.edu/</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They heard about Turning Point and wanted to do something nice for us. They took time out of their day to fly a helicopter to our building and land right in front. They also talked to the youth about helicopters and becoming a helicopter pilot. They have also discussed having youth come to the school to learn more about helicopters. We hope that our youth will take advantage of opportunities like these. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After all it's not everyday you get to see a helicopter land in the middle of the street. </div>

The therapy day we participated in this month was a little different than the others. There is a man in Cedar City who is a Master Falconer and Educator and has over 46 years experience working with animals, especially birds. His name is Martin Tyner. He gave us a great presentation on his Golden Eagle, Scout, and his hawk. The youth have been reading his book, "Healer of Angels" that is about his life. Many of the youth can relate to him as he struggled with a learning disorder and other trials in his life. He worked hard to become a Master Falconer and to have the Southwest Wildlife Foundation of Utah. He was inspirational to many youth. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We were also able to have a picnic at a local park where the youth were able to relax and enjoy being outside. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The weather has been nice lately in Cedar City. For our therapy day this month we chose to head over to the softball fields to play some softball! Pod A beat Pod B in a close game 18-17. It was a fun time as staff and youth both were able to play. </div>

After the softball game we ate lunch (which is some of the boys favorite time of the day) Kalua Pork and rice. It was great! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Once we had cleaned up from lunch we had a guest speaker. His name is Ray Elam. He is a member of the Cherokee Nation. He gave an amazing talk on the background of Native American Tribes, where they lived, how they lived, and much more. He enjoys sharing his culture and encourages others to embrace who they are. One of the big things he shared that with the boys was not to stereotype Native Americans, and that most do not live up to the negative stereotypes that many place on Native Americans. He ended his talk with telling the boys that they do not have to live up to the negative stereotypes that they have been given and they can be so much more. The boys really enjoyed hearing from Ray and he is an amazing person who has given a lot back to the Native American Community. </div>

Hello! Our intensive therapy day for the month was spent hiking the Hurricane Canal Trail. Wikipedia has a short history on the trail :</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hurricane Canal and Canal Trail</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For approximately 80 years, the Hurricane Canal was the lifeblood of the Hurricane Valley. Built over a period of 11 years (1893–1904), mostly by pick and shovel, the canal stands as a testament to pioneer ingenuity and determination. Since 1985, the canal has lain empty. In 2000, special interest groups came together to preserve the canal, receiving grants and volunteering time to construct a trail to stand as a tribute to the sweat and toil early settlers put forth to make the canal a reality. A monument at the trailhead recounts the canal story in brief. Much of the trail, which only covers a small section of the canal, is the actual west bank of the canal, which “canal riders” rode every day when the canal was in operation to ensure there were no leaks or other problems since the bank was somewhat unstable. Two of the trail’s unique aspects are walking in the canal itself – on a steel flume across a wash and through a tunnel immediately thereafter. The trail provides excellent views of the towns of Hurricane and La Verkin throughout. The trail ends before reaching the Virgin River Gorge, approximately five miles from the canal’s former headwaters..</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This was a challenging hike at times, but very rewarding. It was a great hike.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The focus of the day was on what can we or the youth build on to make our lives better. We looked at the way these forefathers of Hurricane had built this canal to bring water to the valley. We challenged the youth at different stops along the way to ask them what they can build on to help them in their lives. How can they become more successful? Are they prepared to work as hard as they need to in order to be successful? We had some interesting and enlightening conversations. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
All in all, it was a great hike. It is always such a great time to get the youth out of the facility and out into nature. We enjoy our times spent together and it truly is a great experience. </div>

We try to make it about family here at Turning Point. This year we invited all the parents to Turning Point to spend some time with their sons. <div>
The day started off with a parent group. The group's focus was on how the parents feel after their sons have sexually acted out. Rick read a letter from a former parent that detailed some of their frustrations and anger at their son for sexually acting out and changing much of their lives. Many in the group could relate to the feelings that this parent felt. It also gave the youth in the group the opportunity to see how their parents felt and how their sexually acting out may have changed their families' lives. </div>
<div>
After group we held a graduation ceremony in which two young men graduated from high school and one graduated the program. It was a perfect day to hold the celebration in which so many parents were present and hopefully can cheer their son on to do the same.</div>
<div>
We were then treated to a fantastic lunch. Each quarter a teacher has a cooking class in which they spend the entire quarter learning how to prepare the menu for the parent day. This year it was Italian themed. It was great! </div>
<div>
Once lunch is over the parents have a chance to visit with their son, have a family therapy session, and a parent teacher conference. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We are so thankful to have parents who support their sons. </div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">This past week we went to Zion National Park for one of our Intensive Therapy Days. We are so lucky to have this National Park and many others in our backyard. It was a beautiful day to be outdoors enjoying the scenery. The focus of the day was on The Optimist Creed by Christian Larson. I have copied it below. This is something that we hope to adopt here in our program as a way for our youth to live their lives not only while they are here with us, but when they leave. We wrote in our journals throughout the hike and discussed The Optimist Creed. We hiked an amazing trail and had a great time.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">The Optimist’s Creed by Christian D.
Larson<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>Promise
Yourself</i><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>To
be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.</i><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>To
talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet.</i><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>To
make all your friends feel that there is something worthwhile in them.</i><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>To
look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.</i><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>To
think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect only the best.</i><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>To
be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.</i><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>To
forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the
future.</i><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>To
wear a cheerful expression at all times and give a smile to every living
creature you meet.</i><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>To
give so much time to improving yourself that you have no time to criticize others.</i><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>To
be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy
to permit the presence of trouble.</i><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>To
think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud
word, but in great deeds.</i><o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>To
live in the faith that the whole world is on your side, so long as you are true
to the best that is in you</i><o:p></o:p></span><br />

The past month in group therapy we have spent discussing the differences between being a victim and a survivor. We have been talking about how each of us have had bad things happen to us, but have we viewed it as a survivor or as a victim? What perspective will bring us the most happiness in our lives? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We recently went on a hike on the "C" Trail. We hiked down the trail. We stopped from time to time to discuss perspectives, the big picture and gave the youth time to journal their own thoughts. We also spent time afterwards in group discussing what we had learned and some youth gained some great insight into themselves. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was also a great day to see the leaves changing and get some great pictures. </div>

This was a two day training that was filled with an amazing amount of information that the therapists were able to bring back to Turning Point to help our youth with the trauma they have witnessed and been a part of. This was a great training that taught relaxation skills, affective regulation, and cognitive processing to help with the trauma symptoms. The therapist were also trained how to help our clients complete a trauma narrative, which is great for the healing process from trauma.<br />
This was a great training that will help us in treating our youth a great deal.Turning Point Family Care Inchttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04031992578277562400noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-558766699327831663.post-42418819346729333692013-07-30T08:49:00.000-06:002013-07-30T08:49:08.193-06:00Another Youth's Perspective on TreatmentThe following is from one of our youth that is preparing to leave the program and go home to live with his family. He has worked hard from day one and has put into treatment everything that he can.<br />
<br />
<br />
Turning Point helped me with learning how to control my urges. They also helped me with recognizing what I did and how it has affected my victim and her family. What I learned is accountability and how if I take accountability it will show that I care about the other person. What I want to do in the future is be a heavy machine mechanic and have a family of my own. I want to be a person that everyone can trust. I want to have a nice home and car for my family. I really want to thank the staff and my therapist for sticking by me and helping me go through the program. They have helped me with past trauma and how my victim feels. they have helped my self-esteem and have been there when I needed help.Turning Point Family Care Inchttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04031992578277562400noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-558766699327831663.post-8120610583294074732013-07-16T16:22:00.003-06:002013-07-16T16:22:50.498-06:00Guest SpeakerToday at Turning Point we had a guest speaker by the name of Kristyn Decker. She wrote the book:<br />
Fifty Years In Polygamy: Big Secrets And Little White Lies<br />
She shared a great deal with the youth about the sexual abuse she was a victim of during her childhood, and how that abuse affected her childhood, marriage, other relationships, and still affects her today.<br />
It was a great experience for our youth to have and to help them gain the empathy that many of them need to learn to ensure they never create another victim.<br />
I would encourage you to read the book.<br />
Kristyn is an amazing person and has overcome so many trials and roadblocks in her life to get to where she is at.Turning Point Family Care Inchttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04031992578277562400noreply@blogger.com0
