| Q 8. Is Integrity House Co-ed? |
| Absolutely not. We find that the co-ed environment takes the kids longer to effect changes. Experience has shown that this is a result of students not focusing on treatment and instead are concentrating much of their time and energy on attempting to get acceptance from the opposite sex. Other issues also keep us from having a co-ed environment, such as, the kid's unwillingness to discuss issues in-group with members of the opposite sex present. |
