KidsPeace Broadway Campus

About KidsPeace Broadway Campus

KidsPeace is a children’s mental health organization with locations throughout the northeastern United States. Their Family Center in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, office houses a partial hospitalization program and standard outpatient services for kids aged 6 to 18 years.

Their partial hospitalization program aims to keep children at home as much as possible while still treating them for moderate to severe behavioral problems like substance use. Youngsters partake in individual, group and family therapy where they practice new skills. This program is an alternative to hospitalization, but it can be used as a step-down. Children and their parents can expect to have therapeutic activities scheduled on most days.

In the standard outpatient program, kids have access to individual, group and family therapy as well as medication management. This level of care is appropriate for children who may be having trouble functioning, but can still do so with the right support.

Between these two programs, most children can get the help they need without having to go anywhere else. For kids who need more help, KidsPeace has residential and inpatient programs in other locations to which they can refer.

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.

Other Forms of Payment

Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Financial aid can take many forms. Centers may have grants or scholarships available to clients who meet eligibility requirements. Programs that receive SAMHSA grants may have financial aid available for those who need treatment as well. Grants and scholarships can help you pai for treatment without having to repay.

Military members, veterans, and eligible dependents have access to specific insurance programs that help them get the care they need. TRICARE and VA insurance can help you access low cost or no cost addiction and mental health treatment. Programs that accept military insurance often have targeted treatment focused on the unique challenges military members, veterans, and their families face.

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

Outpatient

Outpatient Programs (OP) are for those seeking mental rehab or drug rehab, but who also stay at home every night. The main difference between outpatient treatment (OP) and intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) lies in the amount of hours the patient spends at the facility. Most of the time an outpatient program is designed for someone who has completed an inpatient stay and is looking to continue their growth in recovery. Outpatient is not meant to be the starting point, it is commonly referred to as aftercare.

Inpatient

Inpatient rehab provides clients with an opportunity to focus solely on their sobriety away from the stressors of the home and workplace. Clients receive housing, food, and intensive clinical supervision. They also typically engage in multiple addiction counseling sessions each week, including daily individual, group, and/or family sessions. Most programs also prioritize recovery-focused life skills training, including courses in relapse prevention. Many facilities offer evidence-based holistic therapies, such as yoga and meditation.

Intensive Outpatient

Clients engaged in intensive outpatient programs (IOP) live and work in their home community while receiving frequent, high-level care. These programs offer personalized care designed to evolve with the clients' changing needs. Many intensive outpatient rehabs require a minimum of nine hours of treatment per week, but high-risk clients and those in early recovery may receive up to 20 hours of care weekly. IOP services generally include addiction counseling, recovery education, and holistic therapies, such as massage.

Sober Living Homes

Residents of a sober living home in Pennsylvania pay rent and contribute to household maintenance. For their contributions, individuals get the opportunity to live in a substance-free environment and receive support from others in recovery while all residents practice sober-living skills. Sober living expenses are not covered by insurance since they are not treatment services. However, grants and scholarships are often available to help individuals afford rent for men's or women's sober living.

Intervention Services

Intervention services bring extensive experience to the planning and conducting of drug interventions in Pennsylvania. These experts can facilitate interventions in a sensitive manner that encourages positive outcomes. The goal of the intervention is to educate the individual about addiction and the consequences of their substance use and encourage them to get the treatment they need. Interventions can be effective with all types of drugs and alcohol addiction.

Partial Hospitalization Program

With a partial hospitalization program (PHP), you can participate in intensive rehabilitation treatment with the ability to return home at the end of the day. For a weekly minimum of 20 hours, a partial hospitalization program can take place up to 5 days a week for an average of 90 days. During PHP treatment, you can receive relapse prevention strategies, medication management, individual and group therapy, and other behavioral therapy interventions.

Medically Assisted Detox

A medical detox is the safest way to wean your body off drugs and/or alcohol in an inpatient setting. When detoxing from addictive substances, the physical and psychological side effects of withdrawal can cause mood swings, anxiety, nausea, or flu-like symptoms. In medically assisted detox, a team of medical professionals are on hand 24/7 to help alleviate potential withdrawal symptoms, administer medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms, and ultimately keep you safe and comfortable throughout this process.

Treatments

Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.

Programs

Adult Program

Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Young Adult Program

Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.

LGBTQ Program

Recovery is most successful when clients feel accepted and validated by their peers and treatment providers. Facilities that offer LGBTQ-inclusive programming are committed to creating a safe space where everyone can grow and recover without fear of judgment or discrimination. They will have dedicated policies in place to create a safe and supportive environment that fosters free expression.

Military Program

Serving in the military is both mentally and physically challenging, and can result in trauma that persists even after combat ends. Military programs are tailored to the specific and often complex needs of active duty personnel, veterans, and military families. Clients often access these programs through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

Clinical Services

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Trauma therapy addresses traumatic incidents from a client's past that are likely affecting their present-day experience. Trauma is often one of the primary triggers and potential causes of addiction, and can stem from child sexual abuse, domestic violence, having a parent with a mental illness, losing one or both parents at a young age, teenage or adult sexual assault, or any number of other factors. The purpose of trauma therapy is to allow a patient to process trauma and move through and past it, with the help of trained and compassionate mental health professionals.

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

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!

Only giving it a 5 Star because of Matthew Kopowski. His last name is misspelled and he always used to correct me on it, I still get it wrong, but because of meeting him here it made the experience worthwhile. I hope he is doing well in life after 22 years now since I've left kidspeace.i will always miss him and love him always and forever.

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

they sent my bestfriend to this place and they hated it. do not recommend.

Luv kick

I used to go there back in 2011-12 which was a decade ago and I left after my 2018-19 School year. It was fun doing activities and socializing. I made a few close friends that are the same or close to my age and i got help with skills and stuff to be a better person. There are some good, some bad but most are good. Some of the Staff over there Sucks but i overcome it.
