[quote=Anonymous]I would find out where your insurance will pay for residential and start calling yourself. There will likely be waitlists, but I don’t understand what they mean by saying “it will take some time” - they are stalling. My DS went to the FOCUS depression program at Rogers Behavioral Health in Wisconsin. You will have to be willing to travel - the options are not mostly local. I also recommend you join the WTRS group on Facebook. There are a lot of experienced parents there and info on all kinds of higher levels of care both private pay and in network. Another thing to note is that if you want insurance coverage, your DC will have to consent to treatment if over age 14. That can be tricky. We had to work with a therapist to help us craft the “you either go to this program and try it, or the following things are going to change…” conversation. I’m not in Virginia so I can’t speak to CHINS. Best of luck, OP. It’s a terrible place, I know, but it can get better.[/quote]
