: : : Does anyone know the name of Medical Director? Clinical Director? and Executive Director of Growing Together in Lake Worth, FL?

: : I just posted some articles on GT. I don't know if I pointed that out to you or not. Here's the url

: Read the postings, foun it interesting that GT claims they were accredited by JCAHO "at a press conference" in 1990. A check of JCAHO web site has no mention of them. I also thought that JCAHO didn't begin accredtiting Behavioral Care Facilities until the mid 90's. So what gives? Straight claimed and SAFE claims to "nationally accredited" by JCAHO.

When researching GT I came across a few very official looking sites that refer to them. Here's one http://www.cbapf.org/members.html

And here's one, Leadership University; a Christian organization, that references Straight as an authoritative source for info. http://www.leaderu.com/orgs/probe/docs/drugabus.html

And there are lots of references in ONDCP literature to DFAF and PDFA. So it wouldn't surprise me a bit if these people are fraudulently claiming acreditation.
